    thanks mate

    just so you guys now, its part of the image

    but doesn't have a front end though

    so to put in a cron job, telnet to the box and type "crontab -e" then INSERT button to enter a line, then ESC key, : key, w key, q key, then ! key then enter to save!

    a mission but thats how it worked for me
