crontab on MacOS
- Example
crontab -e 00 20 * * * ctest -S myScript.cmake > myScript.log 2>&1
- Problem:
When I create a cronjob with
crontab -e
I get the error message:
crontab: temp file must be edited in place
- Solution:
Use the 'nobackup' option in VI:
:set nobackup crontab: installing new crontab

Add in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
send host-name "<your_host_name>";

Add to .ssh/config
