Hi,
is it possible to run a command every x minutes using cronnix?
For example every 61 minutes?
Thanks for you help,
Lori
 
Cronnix uses cron which is deprecated by launchd (besides, I haven't found an easy way to run anything without it being at least multiples of 60 minutes ON THE CLOCK, like 61 minutes in your example).

One of the GUIs for launchd is Lingon at http://tuppis.com/lingon/ -- you can download it for free. Make a new task under My Agents and set it up for any period, and reboot (read the manual for details). Good luck.
