How do I get a script to run?

I created a script in the Crontab, that reboots my Red Hat Linux station everyday at a certain time. How do I get it to run now?

Put your script in /etc/cron.daily then go to /etc/crontab and make an entry like this;

25 6 * * * root /etc/cron.daily/scan

scan is an f-prot script to run f-prot on my /home daily. For an explanation on how to set the time of execution see cron.
Why would you want to reboot daily anyway?
