QUOTE (Dave Bourke @ Sep 26 2004, 16:32) Daily, Weekly, and Monthly are essential housekeeping tasks performed automatically by Unix. Unix assumes that your machine is turned on and running 24/7 so these tasks are scheduled by cron for between 3.00 and 5.00 in the morning. If I've understood correctly things have changed a bit in Tiger, with Launchd? Do you have info on if the cronscripts are still needed, or if Launchd will take care of them, and should the user manually run Launchd at some points in time like the crons? |
