I'm looking for something that will act like crond. Our cron doesn't want to run any of our compiled programs, and some scripts. Use little overhead. All me to add as many programs as needed, and select date and time I want each of them to run. Ie: 25th of each month at 1:00 am for one program, and 15th of each month at 5:00pm for another program. Prefer perl, but will be open for other ideas. Thanks Bob Ross Deliverables: Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done.

If you could post your crontab, I'll bid on fixing the problem. Maybe $20. This will stop you have having to support any software. Mark.           See 5 private reply(ies) to/from Mark Allen.
