Re: [foxboro] crontab AP51D V6.1

To add to what Duc stated...

To be super safe you might want to copy "crontempfile" to
"crontempfile.bak".

Then VI "crontempfile".

#crontab crontempfile

If anything goes wrong you will have your original crontab file in
"crontempfile.bak"

This is just a suggestion.  Sometimes you learn the hard way.

While your suggestion of using -e to edit the crontab table is a valid =
=3D
one, I prefer to make my mistake in a temporary file. ;-)

crontab -l > crontempfile
vi crontempfile

When you're ready to effect the change(s) to the cron table, run:

crontab < crontempfile

On your Unix box in a VT100 terminal (as user root) type :
> man crontab   # With this you will find all necessary information to
manage your cron.
> crontab -e    # This one opens a VI editor to make your changes
> crontab -l    # Verify your changes
