[03:54] <jyo> pleia2: Yeah, Rubik's Cube competition in Berkeley on Sunday. Sorry partimus people.
[03:57] <pleia2> doh :)
[19:19] <philipballew> has anyone here ever sat up a cron job? whats the best way to do it. It seems there are several but one way might be the best
[19:24] <akk> The easiest way is to put a script in cron.hourly, daily, weekly etc.
[19:24] <akk> If you need more control than that, use crontab (man crontab gives you the options).
[19:25] <philipballew> akk. im just makin a rsync job say all I was gonna run was rsync -azv  /home /myusername  /path/to/externalharddrive
[19:26] <philipballew> its a pretty easy thing, but was unsure if there was a correct way to do it. haha
[19:26] <akk> When and how often? That's the issue with cron.
[19:26] <philipballew> hum. every week was what i was gonna think
[19:27] <akk> If you don't care exactly when, just make a script and put it in cron.weekly.
[19:29] <philipballew> seemes easy enough.  #!/bin/sh seemes like the bwst way to go then
[19:30] <philipballew> thanks!
