- I have a program that I want cron to run at 4:32am on the fourth Sunday of
- every month. I updated root's crontab to contain the following entry:
-
- #min hour daymo month daywk cmd
- 32 4 22-28 * 0 /etc/my_program
-
- For some reason, cron has run /etc/my_program every day so far this week.
- Am I missing something somewhere, or is there a problem with cron? I
- tried killing and restarting cron; no change. We are running 4.0.1 on
- a 4D-25s. Thanks for any advice..
