Yes, is there a HOWDO that i missed? I'm wondering how to setup/start a cronjob that will run a python-script once a day, and another one to run every 20 minutes.

When I manually run the scripts at [root@e-smith] python /home/e-smith/blah-blah, it works fine. But I'm to stupid to set them up in a cron... or should I use crond?

OK! I found it! Sorry folks! I forgot to search in "All dates"

Thanks anyway! (And I understand if somebody wish me dead now)  ;)
