Title: scheduled task
Post by: Richter Belmont on December 01, 2002, 05:04:03 AM

Just a quick question,

Is there a way I can start some process at scheduled time and kill this process after certain duration?  I am not talking about specific to backup but in general.

If there is a way, I would appreciate your input
Thanks.

The only way I know is via cron jobs and some script files to start and stop the processes you want.
