Subject: [gentoo-user] crontab - "and' condition
Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2014 10:44:57 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140918164457.GB32767@syscon7> (raw)
I want to run a cron job only once a month. The problem is the computer is only on on weekdays Mon-Fri. 1-5
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?
