Hi, new to this forum and not sure if this is the right place to post. I'm new to cron jobs and scripts, and I need some help with a script to be used with a cron job. I already have a bot set up at a certain website address and need a script that the cron job will load every day that tells it to visit the website with the bot set up. Any help is very appreciated.
Thanks.

Generally you can use "curl" or "wget" to simply visit websites. If you cannot install these, it's possible to use a simple script implemented in tcl, perl or python. If you want your job to run twice a day, pick a set of hours. Here, I chose 10 minutes after 6am and 7pm. Use "crontab -e" to edit the cron file and insert the following line.

10 6,19 * * * wget --spider -nv http://my.url.com/cgi-bin/mybot >/dev/null
