Full Discussion: Script that, if file exists in Samba share, moves file to Unix server

Certainly, I need to get more specifics, I was just tasked with this and don't quite have all of the details. I think I should be able to use cron for this? It's a bit hazy as its been a year or so since I worked with Unix and I've never been an expert by any stretch. Does this sound like something that could be accomplished with cron?
