Is it possible to create a cron job on the et9x00/et5x000/et6x00 that executes every 15 mins (example). If so how?

thanks

That only seems to have the option for Hourly minimum.

Windows XP is Daily, so to do things every 6 hours on my work PC, I set 4 jobs.

Could you do the same? 4 hourly jobs, one at 00, one at 15, one at 30 and one at 45?

Not ideal I know, but it should work if you're able to select the minutes.

crontab -e then enter the following line "*/15 * * * * touch /media/usb/keepalive.log"

Works like a charm.
Thanks for the replies
