You've got a great excuse not to know how, because the documentation on
the subject sucks! Here in attachment are the man pages from sun-OS 4.
They are much better than the ones that come with linux.
Basicly, U will need the crontab command. Every user has a crontab
(unless they are not allowed to have one). Use crontab -e as explained
in the man page I sent you (it is very clear), and, you will be able to
use cron.
