No, that isn't correct.

I'm suggesting that you read the manual page for crontab so you can understand what you have to do.

Once you understand it, run crontab -e and add a line to run the job at the desired time.

i.e.
Code:
0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * * /usr/bin/wget -O - -q "http://example.com/scheduler/cron"

Before we go any further I need to know a couple of things.

1. What are you really trying to accomplish?
2. Who for (the 'who' can be you, that's OK - but then the question is 'why')?

IMO, you are too stupid to own a computer, so no, I can't.
