I just icq tech support :)

Ask your hosting company and they should be happy to. If you aren't familiar with how servers work, you may not want to fiddle with too much if the sites on your server are important.

bleh
i hate learning new shit

found out it was an option to have it automaticly do something if i WANTED to do it

log on shell

crontab -e

You gotta know "vi" wich is the unix/linux default text editor

save the cronjob data line(s) you entered

should say new crontab as been installed

I just asked support and they fixed it for me. I have no clue...

If you had Coanel, it would already be done ...

I was coding some crap one night after being awake for a day and a half and I set up a cron job right before I went to bed. I meant to set it to run once every 24 hours and I had it email me. I set the fucker up for once every minute, went to bed, and was gone all day the next day. My inbox was lovely. :1orglaugh

That's priceless. :thumbsup

use putty to login to a shell (using ssh)
http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/.../x86/putty.exe

fill in the hostname and go

then use your login name and password

then on the shell

crontab -e
(you'll go into vi .. so editting is started with pressing i
and exit/save is "escape wq!" sequence)

shows how to setup a crontab

hope you allready solved it .. since its over 4 months old :)
otherwise .. hire some monkeys!

yup like said its easy just get a crontab calculator thats the easiest way I always forget the /5 etc

If you dont know how to SSH to your server, best not to mess with it.

Yo, I'm as stupid as you.
