CentOS - May 2009 - Cron Job?

Hi All,

How does one create a cron job that runs commands like:

/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=xxx.com -update
/usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl -config=yyy.com -update

Say every 15 mins?

You could create a file in /etc/cron.d, say /etc/cron.d/awstats, with
the following contents:

*/15 * * * * root /usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl
-config=xxx.com -update
*/15 * * * * root /usr/local/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awstats.pl
-config=yyy.com -update
