Cronwrap
README
Cronwrap is a utility that offers more control over the execution of a
cron job
than the standard cron daemon allows. It can ensure and report
that the job
completes within a specified time period.
It can email and/or log any
output produced from the job. It reports on the exit status of
the job.
This was developed at the University of Wollongong to manage the email
output
from scheduled jobs with cron. It has been running successfully in a
Solaris
environment since February 2001. It has not been compiled or tested on
any
platform other than Solaris however this shouldn't be difficult to do.
It is
lint free and should be kept that way. There is plenty of room for
development
and new features, I am happy to receive patches.
