Darryl,              On 23 Mar 19 21:17, you wrote to All:               DW> I am attempting to set up an automatic poll to occur ever so often. 6        DW> hours at the moment. When I set the cron up to poll my host with the        DW> settings 0 6 ( 0 min, 6 hours ) it never goes off. What else am I        DW> missing?              It's been a while since I poked at these things... I'd say that that would go       off at 0600hrs every day, like once only. What you need is "0 */6", I think.        It should then go off at: 0000, 0600, 1200. and, 1800hrs.              Did that help?              Cheers,       Paul.              ... It beeped and said "Countdown initiated". Is that bad?       --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20130515        * Origin: Quinn's Rock - Live from Paul's Xubuntu desktop!
