Thanks to every one that responded in the end it proved very easy

echo "10 3 * * 0,4 /etc/ianstest" >> /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root
/etc/init.d/cron stop
sleep 4
/etc/init.d/cron start

Thanks to everyone who responded so quickly

Subject: crontab script

I was wondering if anyone has a script or any suggestions on how to add a crontab entry automatically via a script
I am trying to write an installation script and at the end I want the script to add an entry into the crontab file for root

Thanks
