Crontab or cron.daily?
 

Hey all,

I would like my system to update its package list automatically every day.
So I will put a cron task.
However I don't know between cron.daily and a specific task in the crontab.

I don't need the update to be launched at a precise time.
I would prefer my system to run it once a day but when it is not very busy, it is not a priority task.

Can I use cron.daily in such a case?

Thanks

Yes you can use cron.daily.
As root, type
to see the time cron.daily is executed.

Kind regards
