Hello Tony,

   Using Linux here I setup actions/tasks either to be triggered by a BBBS   
   semaphore file or by a Linux cron event. To use cron in a terminal window type   
   "crontab -e". This will open up a simple editor and load your current "User"   
   crontab file. To run/load a program or script file every minutes  you might use   
    the command line entries:   
      
   # For more information see the manual pages of crontab(5) and cron(8)   
   #   
   # m  h  dofm mon dofw          command   
   * 12 * * Mon,Tue,Wed,Fri,Sat,Sun  home/bbbs/script1.sh   
   0 0 1 * *       /home/bbbs/script2.sh (Runs 1st day every month at midnight)   
   */45 * * * *    /home/bbbs/script3.sh (Runs every 45 minutes)   
   */30 * * * *    /home/bbbs/script4.sh (Runs every 30 minutes)   
   */15 * * * *    /home/bbbs/script.sh  (Runs every 15 minutes)   
      
   Hope this might help.   
      
   P.S. -  Running crontab as root can cause permission issues to BBBS owned   
   files.
