-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to BB on 1/13/2008 5:41 PM: | can login to a shell from windows and run commands but how do I create a script
A script is just a file containing the commands that you would have run from the shell, optionally prefixed by something like a #!/bin/sh line to specify the intepreter of those commands. Perhaps your real question was how you can automate the running of such a script without user intervention? If so, why not ask that in the first place? At any rate, cron serves as a nice package to automate the running of arbitrary scripts at set times. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
