    Okay thanks for the help.  I figured it out by trial and error.<br>
    <br>
    Incidentally (and this has nothing to do with you) the ubuntu
    community help pages are a mixed bag.  Sometimes they're great,
    other times they're hard to decipher.  I give the website below a
    C.  The info should be spread out over a number of pages.<br>

              <br>
              How do I configure cron to perform a task at reboot?<br>
              <br>
              Let's say I have a command like this to run the shell
              script 'blah':<br>
              <br>
              @reboot * * * * root sh ~/bin/blah.sh<br>
              <br>
              Do I need to put the asterisks in?  Or, should I remove
              them?<br>

            <div>When you use "crontab -e"  it will reject any changes
              that would not work.<br>
