This will run myscript.ksh on even Sundays at 1 a.m.
If ?'s, email me direct.
I'm not a Unix expert, but one thing you could do is schedule the script to run every
Sunday, then within the script add some logic so that the script completes every other
Sunday. For example, in ksh:
# Check to see if this script ran last Sunday.
if [[ -a ran_last_week.dat ]]; then
rm ran_l
