I did a test, it works as "ad interim" solution,
because there is a banner message which appears every
X seconds, so I have to run the command when I'm sure
to have finished all tasks through the shell.
However I am curious to hear opinion from pfSense
developers about the broken 'at' command in current
implementation (1.2 RC2). Just for knowledge: to
restore it, is the only way to recompile pfSense from
its source files by modifying some settings?
I could be wrong, but I'd prefer the 'at' solution a
lot.

My aim is to get a plain text log file stored on the
CF containing boot up and shutdown timestamps (the
so-called 'heartbeat'). Uptime and system logs from
webConfigurator go lost at the next reboot or
shutdown.
