just need a crontab and wget

**Allowee** · May 2nd, 2003, 06:16

I'm looking for something free that will allow me to setup a cronjob that will execute wget every 5 minutes.

wget will execute a perl script, which returns a 50byte image

I really need a server that will be up for almost 100%

actually I'm just looking for a kind person that will setup
*/5 * * * *wget -q --delete-after http://url....
for me

every 5 minutes? That could put a lot of strain on the server if more than 1 wget gets run at the same time cause mabey the generation takes a lot longer than 5 minutes, or other things.
