- So, the next assignment was scheduling tasks.
So, schedule a task that writes the text good morning
to the default system logging system every day
at 5:00 AM,
and ensure that this task runs as user bob,
and create the user if necessary.
So, that sounds like Chrome, doesn't it?
Let's do it.
So grep bob /etc/passwd
We don't have a user, bob, so useradd bob.
Don't forget the minus M if you're on Ubuntu
because otherwise, the user doesn't get a home directory.
So, next I'm going to open a shell as user bob,
and I'm using crontab minus e
to create my job that is going to run as user bob.
So, every morning at 5:00 AM,
that is minute zero hour five star, star, star logger.
Good morning.
That will install the new Chrome tab for use of bob.
And believe it or not, that's all.
