Schedule a script every three hours

How do I schedule this command:

Quote:
for i in /etc/webalizer/*.conf; do webalizer -c $i; done
to run every three hours. This command has to run as root. I am looking to run webalizer (a web log analyzer program) .

If you have a script, set it up to run using cron.

man cron
