[cobalt-users] cron hourly help please



Hello,
I am currently setting up a piece of software on my server for a client. The
software requires that a cron job is run hourly. Which of the options should
I use below:

# if your server supports curl:
0 * * * * curl -s -o /dev/null
http://your.server.name.here/phpAdsNew/maintenance/maintenance.php

# if your server supports fetch:

0 * * * * fetch -o /dev/null
http://your.server.name.here/phpAdsNew/maintenance/maintenance.php

# if your server supports lynx:

0 * * * * lynx > /dev/null -dump
http://your.server.name.here/phpAdsNew/maintenance/maintenance.php

# if your server supports wget:

0 * * * * wget -q -O /dev/null
http://your.server.name.here/phpAdsNew/maintenance/maintenance.php

Also, I would really appreciate the steps involved in setting up a cron job,
as I have never done this before.

Thanks,
Declan.
