Triggering automatically a script at a certain time and generate notfication mails out of it.

Hi can anybody tell me
1-how can I trigger my TCL script to run at a certain period of time automatically.
2-Generating email notifications about the report that script ran succesfully or not.


actually I am trying to automate the process of backup of config files of certain switches by ftp and if for a certain switch backup doesn't happens it may notify me via email.

I think it depends on your platform. On Linux and UNIX systems you could run your script from a cron job. On Windows (at least the versions through XP; I don't know anymore) there was an AT configuration that would do something similar.
