The cron system is essentially a smart alarm clock. When the alarm sounds, Linux runs the commands of your choice automatically. You can set the alarm clock to run at all sorts of regular time intervals. Alternatively, the at system allows you to run the command of your choice once, at a specified time in the future.

Red Hat configured the cron daemon, crond. By default, it checks a series of directories for jobs to run, every minute of every hour of every day. The crond checks the /var/spool/cron directory for jobs by user. It also checks for scheduled jobs for the computer under /etc/crontab and in the /etc/cron.d directory.

Here is the format of a line in crontab. Each of these columns is explained in more detail:

#minute, hour, day of month, month, day of week, command

*        *     *             *      *            command

Samba servers helps to share the data between linux and windows. Configuration file is /etc/samba/smb.conf. There are some pre-defined section, i. globaluse to define the global options, ii. Printersuse to share the printers, iii. homesuse the share the user’s home directory.

Security=uservalidation by samba username and password. May be there are other users also. To allow certain share to certain user we should use valid users option.

smbpasswdHelps to change user’s smb password. –a option specifies that the username following should be added to the local smbpasswd file.

If any valid users option is not specified, then all samba users can access the shared data. By Default shared permission is on writable=no means read only sharing. Write list option is used to allow write access on shared directory to certain users or group members.
