Dear Hugo,

It is possible using cron and psql. Just "man cron" on unix if you're
not already familiar with that. The command line you should use is
something like:

psql [connection options] -f sql_commands_file.sql

Also "man psql" for the options you can use... 
Starting the procedure should be done by something like:

SELECT procedure_name();

in the sql commands file given to psql.
Alternatively you can do:

echo "SELECT procedure_name();" | psql [connection options]

but I don't know how well that works with cron... I'm not actually using
it...

HTH,
Csaba.
