I usually like to have a minutely cronjob as well. To do this I alter my /etc/crontab to look like this: * * * * * root test -x /usr/sbin/run-crons && /usr/sbin/run-crons && rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.minutely 0 * * * * root rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.hourly 0 0 * * * root rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.daily 0 0 * * 6 root rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.weekly 0 0 1 * * root rm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.monthly Then, any executable file I put in /etc/cron.minutely/ will run once a minute. -Eric -- arctic bears - email and name services 25 email [EMAIL PROTECTED] CA$11.95/month DNS starting at CA$3.49/month - domains from CA$25.95/year for details contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] or visit http://www.arcticbears.com -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
