I have just installed OS X 10.3.5, and want the system, including hard drives, to sleep at night. Will the cron scripts run? Will the system wake itself up and put itself back to sleep?

David Pogue's book The Missing Manual describes scheduled jobs as daily, weekly, and monthly at 3:15, 4:30, and 5:30, apparently respectively. But he does not related this to the sleep habit. And he does not say what days to run the system overnight if necessary.

Thank you,

If you don't leave the system on overnight at least once a week, get
something like MacJanitor and manually run the various cron scripts
that normally run at 3AM. This rotates logs, cleans up temp files, etc
etc.
