Hi Chris, Thanks for the reply. It's not really my thread; I sortof hijacked it when the first (unhelpful) reply came back, which I paraphrase: "just use the scheduler, dummy." I've had my PC monowall up for over a year now with no problems and I have not had to schedule reboots. I'm not a *nix user. I love monowall because the web interface shields me from having to learn *nix. When someone says, 'use the scheduler' in reference to monowall, I assume they are referring to a monowall feature. AFAIK there is no scheduler in the web interface, which you confirmed. Thank you. I read the information at the link you provided and it occurs to me that when I read "Jim Gifford posted the following shell script..." that this refers to resources outside of the monowall, i.e. you need another machine connected to network to run the script. Maybe this is immediately obvious to most people, but up until about 20 minutes ago, I was pretty sure monowall had no shell so I thought maybe monowall had some amazing scripting ability that I was unaware of and I was searching the documentation to find out how I can write monowall shell scripts. Just a friendly FYI to all you out there who reply to posts. I'm very grateful for the free help and amazingly fast responses. However, keep in mind that some of us need spoonfed a little bit more and saying, 'just run a shell script,' is talking way over us Linksys babies. Also, not all of us has a *nix box on their network to write shell scripts on, nor do we keep cygwin up on our taskbar 247. Finally, I agree with you that people should search the archives before asking questions that have already been answered. For those who don't know, the archive can be found here: http://m0n0.ch/wall/list-announce/ Kind Regards, Ron Wilson, Senior Engineer, MPR Associates, 518.831.7546 -----Original Message----- From: Chris Buechler [mailto:cbuechler at gmail dot com] Sent: Thursday, October 11, 2007 5:34 PM Cc: Monowall Support List Subject: Re: [m0n0wall] reboot scripting On 10/11/07, Wilson, Ron <rwilson at mpr dot com> wrote: > what scheduler? is there a scheduler on the web interface? i'm using 1.22, so perhaps it is a new feature? > I'm not aware of any scheduler. You can adapt this to accomplish a reboot. http://doc.m0n0.ch/handbook/thirdparty-automatedbackups.html and I think if you search the archives, you'll find a specific solution. It's been discussed before. -Chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: m0n0wall dash unsubscribe at lists dot m0n0 dot ch For additional commands, e-mail: m0n0wall dash help at lists dot m0n0 dot ch |
