For this particular purpose, minicron probably wouldn't work out
properly.  If you need to execute something every X seconds (whatever
X might be) no matter what time of the day that happens to be,
minicron is the answer.  You can't reliably set a particular time to
execute something with minicron.

You can use a script and cron on a system on your LAN to accomplish this.
