Hi all,

CentOs has choosen anacron as default cron daemon. I did not look further about the reasons, I think there are some good reasons.

anacron is used on desktops and laptops which are not powered 24/7 - it executes the missed cron jobs soon after boot. It doesn't replace the regular crond, which executes jobs if the machine is up at the scheduled time.

I want to create a minute based set of scripts.

No much precision required, once a minute more or less 20 sec is OK.

If it's that rough, then see man 1 sleep.
