Installation - Schedule Dailymail - Set up Cron with SSH - Pico Editor




Set up cron via SSH with Pico
Type "crontab -e" at the prompt to modify your cron tasks. You will see something like this:

GNU nano 1.0.6File: /tmp/crontab.XXXXi9k0F2    
 
(blank space, this is where you make your entry)
 
^G Get Help^O WriteOutetc.
^X Exit ^R Read File etc.


You are automatically taken into "entry" mode, so you can enter your cron line now, as follows:

15 1 * * * /usr/bin/wget -O /dev/null -T 0 http://example.com/mail/dailymail.php?pw=YourDailyPass 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null

Replace "example.com/mail" with your domain and correct path to ListMail. Replace "YourDailyPass" with your Dailymail Password, set in ListMail's Configuration menu.

Hit CTRL-O to write the file.

Additional Notes
The cron line must *not* be word-wrapped. Pico automatically wraps lines of text so expand the SSH client window as much as possible horizontally before entering your task. Alternately, you can use the following keystrokes (more than once, if necessary) to beat the system and un-wrap the lines. After moving the cursor to line 1: END, CTRL-D, Space, Up Arrow, END, CTRL-D.


Next:Install wget if needed
