So either tell it in your crontab entry with something like: 0 * * * * /usr/local/bin/php /blah/blah/mailf.php Or channel it through your web server with something like this: 0 * * * * /usr/bin/lynx http://127.0.0.1/distribuidor/mailf.php Or put a comment in the first line of your PHP file that tells the shell to use PHP to run it: #!/usr/local/bin/php All of these paths are samples; you'll need to figure out where these things are on your system. miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
