I want to run a cron job only once a month.  The problem is the computer

cron tab as this below is an "or" condition as it has entries in Days of
the Months and Day of the  Week

5 18 1 * 2  rsync -av ...

so it will run on days 1 or Tuesday of each months.

Is it possible to create "and" condition, eg. run it on Tuesday between
days 1 to 7; depend on which day Tuesday falls on?


Not in one line.

Split it into two crontab entries.

Interesting.  How do you split cron job? I couldn't find any examples.
