Easy? Hmmm. 0 12 * * 1 [ $(expr $(/bin/date +\%s) / 60 / 60 / 24 / 7 \% 8) -eq 3 ] && myscript works for me well enough: runs every Monday at noon and checks whether another eight weeks have passed, and if so executes myscript. By adjusting the -eq 3 the starting date for the eight week interval can be shifted around. HTH, Flo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
