Or use the 'at' command, which is run by crond but does not require crontab - it runs jobs as a one-off. Or use Proc::Background.	[reply]

For this file #!/usr/bin/perl $date = `date`; print $date; [download] I had set the at command like this at -m 02:21 < date.pl But nothing got printed on the screen. How will I know that the job has been executed	[reply] [d/l]
