May I suggest an alternative to crontab for this purpose? 1. Use the 'at' command to launch a script that launches itself 20 days later. Last line of script: at + 20 days name_of_script
2. Use a date time stamp for a file to execute a set of commands and adjust the date time stamp for the file 20 days in the future. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
