Hi ..
I've got a number of similar tasks that need to be done from cron whenever a new
site is added.
the cron tasks are already set out in a file called
/srv/site-1/cron/crontab.in
/srv/site-2/cron/crontab.in
..
but when i go
crontab -u site-process /srv/site-1/cron/crontab.in
crontab -u site-process /srv/site-2/cron/crontab.in
the second line wipes out the crons from the first
Is there a way to append to a crontab from script ?
cheers
