Note:

1. asterisks can match all characters. 2. An integer. Must be precisely matched. 3. two integers separated by short dashes. They match the value range. 4. Add a diagonal slice and a step value after the time range. 1-10/2

Common User process: crontab-e crontab is set with setuid, so the user has his or her permissions, that is, root, and will go to/tmp/cron .... after the file is processed, it is saved in/var/spool/cron/$ username. Log:/var/log/cron configuration Directory:/var/run/crond. pid process ID address/etc/crontab instruction file/etc/$ weekday. you can put the script in the directory of the hour, day, month, and week, and execute the script on time. /Etc/cron. {deny, allow} rejects and allows users to use crontab Vixie-Cron: this package is installed by default during centos installation. This package can include a step value. That is, for example, 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 can be written as, 1-12/3 divided by 3. The so-called */1 */2 means that the command is run every two minutes every minute. That is, 1-59/{2, 3 }. % Indicates the line feed in the command. Only the text before the first percent is included in the actual command, and other lines are used as the standard input for this command. Install: yum install-y crontabs:

Crontab -- help crontab-e # Check out a copy of crontab, call vi to edit it, and save the crontab directory again. Crontab-l # print the content of crontab to the standard output. Crontab-r # No content is left in the volume.

... Root, except for other users. Crontab-r $ username
