Depending how date-critical 'end of every month' is to you, you may also consider adding your script in /etc/periodic/monthly/ Rob. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Do you mean how do I run a job at the end of a month when the months are not the same length so I can't use a fixed day-of-the-month value? If that's the question, then you might consider running it just after midnight on the first of the next month. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
