GNU date is very good to do this, you can use the following test:

test `date --date "last saturday" +%d` -eq `date +%d`

Haven't tried to figure out how to use this command in cfengine, though.

Over at Ars there was a discussion about scheduling a cron job for the last Saturday of each month. Alas, cron cannot do this on its own. What followed as a lot of short scripts to help but very few were portable.

One of the newer goals of Cfengine is to be an enterprise scheduler. For fun and reputation how would you use Cfengine to schedule a job on the last Saturday of each month?

Sincerely,
