Could someone provide me with an example of how to create a both a cron tab and a cron job to run cvsup once every month? I need it explained in terms a 2 year old could understand. I've looked at the man pages for cron and cvsup but it's over my head. I was told in the newbies list to post all my questions here so I apologize to all you guru's here.
