You may want ot look at cron instead of at. at is for one-time jobs, cron is for recurring jobs.

I'll check, thanks for the pointer... Harald -- I hope to die ___ _ before I *have* to use Microsoft Word., 0--,|/OOO\ Donald E.

If not, then you can write a script that executes whatever you want and then adds itself to atd. -- Those who do not understand recursion are doomed. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
