Hello Bob,
kcron is now in systemsettings of KDE. systemsettings->Advanced->Task Scheduler
Kind regards,

Ah! Wonderful. I can setup my own cronjobs there, but not root's. Everything is greyed out when I click the System radio button. How frustrating. I suppose I'll have login to KDE as root just to get this little job done :(
Or learn the CLI way of doing it ;)
Thanks,
Bob
I seem to remember a button that would prompt for a password in previous releases to allow modifying root tasks (such as scheduling backups etc which must be done as root, or some approximation there-of). I've always maintained that sort of thing at the CLI until kcron came along and I could stop going blind counting asterisks and chanting minute hour day month day-of-week, and remembering it was man 5 crontab you wanted to look up instead of just man crontab. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
