I don't know anything about cron/crontab, but I'd like to use it. Are there any good tutorials (the simpler the better) out there? Thanks.

P.S. I don't know if this was the best place to post this...

You can learn quite a bit from the man page:
man crontab

Also, check out the 'Unix in a Netshell' series of books on cron. Good Luck!
