Hello all! Since my ISP is disconnecting my connection every 24 hours I would like to make sure that happens in the early morning hours rather than at noon.
After a bit of searching I found the .sh script that works but I havent managed to get it to work properly. This is the .sh script: #!/bin/sh # Reconnect and update DynDNS /etc/rc.d/uplinks stop main sleep 90 /usr/local/bin/setddns.pl sleep 30 /usr/local/bin/setddns.pl I made a folder called /customscripts and moved the .sh file in there. Running it manually via "sh <scriptname.sh> works perfectly, getting it to run at a specific time is where I am stuck. I edited the /etc/crontab file and added at the end: 30 3 * * * root /customscripts/reconnect.sh This should run the script at 03:30 in the morning but unfortunately it doest work. Since this is my first cronjob ever I am almost certain I have missed something trivial but important :-) Thank you! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
