Re: [cobalt-users] PHP cron problem

Here is how I did it to stop the error message you received.  I searched
around with google and ran across the following solution.  It works, no
error messages on my raq4.

If anyone knows exactly what it all means I would appreciate an explanation.

01,15,30,45 * * * * root TERM=xterm; export TERM; /usr/bin/lynx -dump
http://www.thelocationofyoursrcipt.com/thescript.php > /dev/null 2>&1

The above is all one line.
