From the doc: *"All fields except the command and the user are optional, although specifying no periodic fields would result in the command being executed every minute."* http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/type.html#cron Hope that helps -- Tony -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
