Hi. Im running a freebsd version called IPSO. Its kinda like a stripped freebsd version 4.0 or later i think. Id like to start CRON jobs. I know how to make the cron -e command, and how to configure the time or date i want it to execute, but i cant get it to execute the commands ive typed into a file. I made a file in VI. I dont know if thats the right thing. And saved it with the regular :w , :q! . I want to use CRON to take backups of files, every sunday. The vi file contains the dirs and files i want to backup. Anyone know how to help me out ?! /Hans To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
