If you select all for the minutes it will run every minute, same for
hours, days, months etc etc. If you select a minute and all hours it
will run every hour on that minute. If you select every minute and 1
hour for every minute of that hour the script will run.

Subject: [newbie] Webmin and Cron


Checkin' out configuring cron with webmin, and I'm not clear on
something.

The choices above each time sector are "all" or "selected".

If I choose "all", say, above minutes, does that mean the job is going
to be run every minute, or will it skip to hourly?

Conversely, if I choose "selected", do I just not select any minutes so
that the job will skip minutes and go to hours?

Basically what I want to do is execute this command, say every 3 or 4
hours, for my dynamic IP:

zoneclient.py -l -r http://checkip.dyndns.org/ user pass
