If you wanna use cron, why not something like:<BR>
<BR>
* * * * * python_script; sleep 30; python_script<BR>

Okay, I guess I can go with the endless shell script and I wouldn't need the cron for it either. I might make it into startup script launched as a particular user. Thanks guys<BR>

Use a shell script with an infinite loop and a 30 second sleep (or 25<BR>
second sleep, assuming the process takes 5 seconds to complete.)<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
#!/bin/bash<BR>
while [ 1 ]<BR>
do<BR>
# Your code goes here<BR>
<BR>
# Modify sleep time (in seconds) as needed below<BR>
sleep 2<BR>
done
