Cron Jobs setup - Suse 10
Does anyone have any good advise for setting up cron jobs under Suse 10?
I have only ever set them up with the cPanel cron GUI, and i don't know how to do it otherwise. Is there a GUI i can install? I tried searching for in YAST but i didn't see one. Thanks |
There's a GUI KCron that may make this process easier for you.

You might check out webmin, it has a cron job setup function, among MANY other things.

Appreciate the help guys.
I couldn't see KCron in any of my menu's or my suse disks. Is it an app i install from the KDE website? If i have problems with that i'll give Webmin a go, it looks pretty cool (although it maybe has more functions than i need as i just want the task scheduler. Thanks again |
KCron is part of KDE and is a component of one of the KDE RPM's. You may already have it. Try "whereis kcron" in a kconsole window. It should report:
kcron: /opt/kde3/bin/kcron You can add kcron to the menu or just execute it from the command line and the GUI window will pop up. |
This is what i tried but it appears its not there.

KCron can be found in the kdeadmin package on ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/
ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/3.4...-3.4.3.tar.bz2 The file you need depends upon the version of KDE your running. |
