yeah, but I think the OP also wants to enable 'non-monday' logic into the script as well so that 'nothing happens' if the script is ran on monday from the shell.
This should do it:
However, in light of this:
Quote:
if my crontab is set up to run only on the 13th.
0 9 13 * * /script
then my script will need to be setup as - if Monday is the 13 then run the script ifMonday is not the 13th not dont do anything, my question is what will my script look like?
if tuesday is 13 ?
then (run script) ?
else do nothing ?
I think that the OP has a misunderstanding of how cron works.
My example does not make any distinction on when a Monday falls in a month. My example says run every monday. The asterisk in the crontab's DayOfMonth field says run everyday and then the DayOfWeek is further interpreted to determine which day/days of the week should it run.
Vgresh99 makes a good point so if you want to limit the script from running interactively on Mondays, implement the first example.

uudemon
uudemon(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual uudemon(4)NAME
uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour, uudemon.poll - Administrative shell scripts for polling remote systems, cleaning up spool
directories, reporting status to the system administrator, and routine invocations of the uuxqt and uusched daemons
SYNOPSIS
These shell scripts reside in the following directory:
/usr/lib/uucp
DESCRIPTION
All the scripts can be run from the command line or can be run automatically by the cron daemon. To automatically run the scripts, remove
the comment character (#) from the beginning of the relevant line in the /var/spool/cron/crontabs/uucp file.
This script reports status to the system administrator. It issues the uustat command to find out the status of uucp jobs. It mails the
results to the uucp login ID. The script may be modified to send mail to any login ID such as the uucp administrative login ID (uucpa) or
root. This script cleans up the /var/spool/uucp and /var/spool/uucppublic directories by running the uucleanup command. The uucleanup com-
mand is run with the following parameters: -C7, -D7, X2, -o2, -W1. This script runs the uusched and uuxqt daemons in the background. This
script polls the systems listed in the /usr/lib/uucp/Poll file. The uudemon.poll script should be scheduled before the uudemon.hour
script. This allows uudemon.poll to create any command files before cron runs the uudemon.hour script.
FILES
Contains the uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour and uudemon.poll files. Contains the uucp file.
RELATED INFORMATION
Commands: cron(8), uucleanup(8), uusched(8), uuxqt(1)
