NAME

cron − clock daemon

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

Cron executes commands at specified dates and times according to the instructions in the file /usr/lib/crontab. Since cron never exits, it should only be executed once.  This is best done by running cron from the initialization process through the file /etc/rc; see init(8).
