Automatic start of aMule
How do I start aMule at a specific time using Kcron? I've entered /usr/bin/amule under tasks in Kcron, and set it to start at midnight, but nothing happenes. When I click on "run now" the program starts ok.....very strange! What do I do wrong, has anybody experienced the same problems?

dont know kcron,
maybe if you just type: crontab -e and add line 01 12 * * * /usr/bin/amule |
Hi there
I've checked my crontab and it says: # aMule 0 0 * * * /usr/bin/amule # Stop aMule 0 6 * * * /bin/killall amule # This file was written by KCron. Copyright (c) 1999, Gary Meyer # Although KCron supports most crontab formats, use care when editing. # Note: Lines beginning with "#\" indicates a disabled task. It stops automatically at 6am, but I need to start it manually for some reason. What is wrong in my crontab? u |
I'm afraid that amule need X display.
give command 'xhost localhost' on your xterm and change cron line to: 0 0 * * * DISPLAY=localhost:0 /usr/bin/amule |
Thank you, it works!
