I finally used this:
From: James Sainsbury [mailto:J.Sainsbury_at_chem.usyd.edu.au]
rename /usr/sbin/fingerd to /usr/sbin/fingerd.dist
and copy /usr/sbin/telnetd to /usr/sbin/fingerd
and
telnet yourmachine finger
There were advices to edit crontab tables, but via FTP i can only edit raw
files in /var/spool/cron/crontabs/, this way it's not working, cron really
needs a signal, which is given f.e. by "crontab my_tab", so the only way is
to move "my_script" to "already_existing_cron_entry" and wait.
If there's nothing in cron starting frequently enough, i was thinking about
this:
# mv /sbin/sync /sbin/sync.tmp
# cp my_script /sbin/sync
The script should handle multiple starting problem by adding a command like
"mv /sbin/sync.tmp /sbin/sync" at the end of the script itself
Thanx to everybody
