Yes. That would do the trick quite neatly. In fact, snapshot before

Try this as a crontab entry:

Two points to note:
1) The 'cron' verb is important for anyone setting up an automated job

For some reason this goes wrong; (if I run 'newsyslog' on any other

The only solutions I see are the three-cronjob approach:
0 1 31 1,3,5,7,8,10,12 * /path/to/script
0 1 28 2 * /path/to/script
0 1 30 4,6,9,11* /path/to/script
Alternately, you could do this with a single cron
put 12 lines, for each month and with the last day.

If it really needs to be done on the last day
I would like to execute a script on every last day of the month in my
crontab.
Can someone tell me how I should solve that as it doesn't know which
month day is the last day of the month?
Solving this in the script to be executed is no option.
