[opensuse] Scheduled Cron Jobs in YaST
Hi all, Does anyone know if it is possible to create and edit Cron Jobs in YaST instead of modifying the files directly? I cannot find anything in the OpenSUSE manuals. Any help is appreciated. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

If you installed KDE, then in Configure Desktop (this name varies by language) there is a Task Scheduler, with which you can schedule Cron jobs, either for the user or for Root. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Hi Malcom, Exactly what I need but... there is a but :( the server is minimal text only so it would have to be ncurses, YaST or something similar. I knew this wouldn't be easy :p -----Original Message----- From: Malcolm Sent: Thursday, August 22, 2013 9:16 PM To: opensuse@opensuse.org Subject: [opensuse] Re: Scheduled Cron Jobs in YaST On Thu 22 Aug 2013 08:38:18 PM CDT, Paul Groves wrote:

Hi If your on a system running X and using ssh, then login via ssh -X and run the application? Then there is webmin, I don't think there is a module for webYaST..... -- Cheers Malcolm °¿° (Linux Counter #276890) openSUSE 12.3 (x86_64) Kernel 3.7.10-1.16-desktop up 20:42, 3 users, load average: 0.38, 0.41, 0.29 CPU AMD E2-1800@1.70GHz | GPU Radeon HD 7340 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

There is no cronjobs Yast module, but might be a good idea to write one, not for cron itself but for the equivalent systemd.timer(5) functionality, which provides the equivalent of cron and at. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Any help is appreciated. You might want to consider vcron. It sits under /usr/bin on my system. Very nice program. Terry
