Drop to a console and type crontab -e (sudo crontab -e if it needs to run as root) Add the following line: * * * * * /root/Desktop/IPrest.sh Also, are you running as root? I hope that you're not running a GUI as root? I'm asking because of the /root/Desktop/ directory.<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"> -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com" target="_blank">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a> </div></div></blockquote></div> Yeah, I'm running as root, but don't think GUI is on root. Backtrack runs on root as a default. Anyway, the issue with running every 60 seconds is that it is not the real solution and all the connections are reset.. and in case the IPs are dropped before or after 60 sec, I've to run IPreset.sh manually again.... have made a quick launch for it by now. No I guess it is related to the network rather than my system. -- TopBot.
