Very Interesting Command, i never came by this before. But can you correct me on this if i'm wrong.
The "at command" does not have an every day feature, so away around this is by having it invoke itself in a script.
# my.daily runs every day
at now tomorrow < my.daily
daily-processing
So here, my.daily is a script that is written like this
Then when the user runs there script and in the parameters they have the keyword "tomorrow"
So this insures tomorrow is always recurring.
I have the following crontab entry.
0,30 00-16 * * *
This job runs every 30 minutes between the hours of 12:00AM and 4:00PM. How can I have it stop at 4:30PM instead?
Thank you,

I have a script which will query the DB and added to crontab at 1,2,6,7 AM everyday and sends a email if count is 0.
Now the problem is, if crontab is disabled it doesn't sends a mail.
Please tell me how can I handle this situation in the script. (2 Replies)

calendar
CALENDAR(1) General Commands Manual CALENDAR(1)NAME
calendar - reminder service
SYNOPSIS
calendar [ - ]
DESCRIPTION
Calendar consults the file `calendar' in the current directory and prints out lines that contain today's or tomorrow's date anywhere in the
line. Most reasonable month-day dates such as `Dec. 7,' `december 7,' `12/7,' etc., are recognized, but not `7 December' or `7/12'. On
weekends `tomorrow' extends through Monday.
When an argument is present, calendar does its job for every user who has a file `calendar' in his login directory and sends him any posi-
tive results by mail(1). Normally this is done daily in the wee hours under control of cron(8).
FILES
calendar
/usr/lib/calendar to figure out today's and tomorrow's dates
/etc/passwd
/tmp/cal*
egrep, sed, mail subprocesses
SEE ALSO at(1), cron(8), mail(1)BUGS
Your calendar must be public information for you to get reminder service.
Calendar's extended idea of `tomorrow' doesn't account for holidays.
