    Event Scheduling?

    These are kind of preemptive questions on my part. I'm wanting to replace the XP IIS-based intranet server we use here at work with a LAMP box (likely CentOS5). All my planning is going quite well and the fact I've already converted a lot of the intranet to PHP/mysql means the migration will be a piece of cake. However, I just realized I have a script that runs every night that pulls a payment report together for one of my managers. The script is a simple .vbs file that I set to run through event scheduler.

    Is there an event scheduler type function in Linux that would facilitate this need? Would the script be rewritten in PHP or would some other script be needed?

    Not a big UNIX user, but it sounds like you want 'cron'. A google on LINUX CRON should produce everything you need to determine if this is what you are looking for.
