cron-HOWTO

[Marc-Oliver Kalis]

hi there,
as some of you already know, i am still very new to Linux.
i have a perl scrip, that i want to implement for a cron job, but i have
never used cron before. it is supposed to run hourly so i suppose i need
to put that script into /etc/cron.hourly/
i did that but now i need to know how i can activate it, that cron runs
this script avery hour.
i tried the man pages but they were very scarce.
thnx for your help
