[arm-allstar] Fwd: Cron Jobs

[Doug Crompton]

That should be 50 20  for connect  and  20 21  for disconnect - The news is PM not AM. cron is 24 hour time.

Hi Pete,
Your entry should be cleaned up as it was missing quotes and syntax for the asterisk command. Here are the updated entries:
# To disconnect20 9 * * 1 /usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "rpt fun <your_node_number> *7127225"
# Connecting50 8 * * 1 /usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "rpt fun <your_node_number> *7327225"
So at 8:50 am on Monday, you'll be connecting to node 27225, and disconnecting at 9:20 am. I assume this is correct.
Once you save the entry (when using crontab -e), it will save the entry in /var/spool/cron. The cron daemon (crond) will pick up this entry.

73,
Chris, w0anm
