I'm not satisfied with both "cron" and "at" in Digital Unix. cron lacks
some features (such as the ability to define variables in the crontab,
like PATH, SHELL or MAILTO). atrun has a strange behaviour, quite
undocumented (what is the maximum load where it starts to delay batch
jobs???).
I've found a nice cron, Vixie-cron, which works as I want. A la BSD, it
doesn't perform "atrun" functions. Since I need a new atrun anyway,
that's fine. But I'm still looking for one which works. (I'm currently
porting FreeBSD's atrun on Digital Unix.)
Anyone knows a good atrun in source form?
Anyone knows where to find information about DU atrun's policy?
Do you like another cron?
Did I miss something?
