Cron Job Matter

hi friend,

My hosting (Netfirms.com- running linux) do not support cron job, which I need for my autoresponder script.

Anyone can help me, perhaps to install a 3rd party script into my server to act as cron job.

Thank you

Ronniehoi

Here's a Shelldorado shell script you can run in the background.
It periodically runs a command, hence it's name: periodic. Rename to "periodic", make executable, "periodic -h" for hints how to run it.

Hi unSpawn,

Thank you for your advice.

I am not very good at this, anyway how can I get the instruction and installation manual for the script.

Thank you again.

rgds,
