using crontab is the way to go, but the command to get mail to do the job is my problem.

I have a log file that I am processing. This contains messages from and to a server (requests and responses).
The responses to requests may not be in order i.e. we can have a response to a request after several requests are sent, and in some error cases there may not be any response message.

Hi
I need to look for the range dates of access_log for example:
between 02/May/2009:14:56:20 and 05/May/2009:18:46:06
then write the content to another file. Date and time is very important for me to concatenate them into access_log later.
Thanks (2 Replies)

CRON(8) System Manager's Manual CRON(8)NAME
cron - daemon to execute scheduled commands (Vixie Cron)
SYNOPSIS
cron
DESCRIPTION
Cron should be started from /etc/rc or /etc/rc.local. It will return immediately, so you don't need to start it with '&'.
Cron searches /var/spool/cron for crontab files which are named after accounts in /etc/passwd; crontabs found are loaded into memory. Cron
also searches for /etc/crontab and the files in the /etc/cron.d/ directory, which are in a different format (see crontab(5)). Cron then
wakes up every minute, examining all stored crontabs, checking each command to see if it should be run in the current minute. When execut-
ing commands, any output is mailed to the owner of the crontab (or to the user named in the MAILTO environment variable in the crontab, if
such exists).
Additionally, cron checks each minute to see if its spool directory's modtime (or the modtime on /etc/crontab) has changed, and if it has,
cron will then examine the modtime on all crontabs and reload those which have changed. Thus cron need not be restarted whenever a crontab
file is modified. Note that the Crontab(1) command updates the modtime of the spool directory whenever it changes a crontab.
