It is not necessarily need to wait for input It can be something like that:
java -jar ...openmeeting.jar CommanLineAdmin -c install -user hans -pass mayer -smtp.server localhost -smtp.port 25 -language english java -jar ...openmeeting.jar CommanLineAdmin -c backup -user hans -pass mayer -file mybackup.zip Or even skip the user since if somebody have physical access to the server he can "guess" DB password and get all videos etc. 2012/3/20 [email protected] <[email protected]> > Having a command prompt that waits for input is also nice but I don't know > if it is possible to handle cron jobs with that. > > My first idea was something like: > /red5_home/bin/install.sh -user hans -pass mayer -smtp.server localhost > -smtp.port 25 language english > /red5_home/bin/backup.sh -user hans -pass mayer > mybackup.zip > /red5_home/bin/importbackup.sh -user hans -pass -mayer -file mybackup.zip > /red5_home/bin/createUser.sh -firstname hans -lastname mayer ... > maybe updateUser/deleteUser too.
