Dear Managers :

I would want to know the steps for setup a program on crontab
I attempted making the follow:

1. I edited with crontab -e
2. I want my program that's writed on Perl executes each 5
minutes, So I add the follow entry :

5 * * * * /usr/bin/myprogram.pl

But nothing happens, I am waiting nearly 20 min and
nothing.....

Are necessary some other configurations ? I am making all
necessary details for this ?
I have a question : the field separators are spaces or tabs ?

Thank you for your reply as soon as possible.

Ernesto Freyre.
