How do I shedule a script to execute via crontab? 1

[stla]

I have created a script and save it here:

/etc/cron.daily/my_script

How do I 'add' my script to the crontab so that it executes at a specific time?

I am logged in as 'root'.

Normally I would use #crontab -e but this seems to be the wrong command as my other scripts aren't in here.

Any ideas?

Best regards

Your other scripts should appear when you issue a crontab -l command. Do they?



I want to be good, is that not enough?

if you put the script in cron.daily, it should execute every morning about 4:am automatically, you dont have to do anything.

Opps sorry, I'm thinking of the more trad. *nix variants!
