Re: [plug] bash script that will run a program at a certain time interval

[Kenneth Oncinian]

I bet...you are a disgruntled administrator, created a script which will 
cause havoc to the organization's *nix boxes, you want to trigger it on 
a certain date and time, probably when you are at home or not in the 
office (perfect alibi), since your boss also has the root account, thus 
can check cron jobs, you *really* don't want to use cron. ;-)

I'm Just kidding...
:-)
cheers,
Kenneth

As much as possible I don't want to use cron. I want my script to be self

Do you have some idea on how to do this? Please advice.
thanks

this works well, you mean for some time this will stop?
Now my new problem arise. How do I run multiple task in a single script
with different time interval?
Let's attack this from a different angle.  Why do you think you can't
use cron?
