Previously I wrote an script to be executed every minute using Cronjob. Using crontab -l I added an entry like :

* * * * * /etc/init.d/time-stamps-ntp

to execute the mentioned script periodically. Now; I would like to do this process automatically for some other devices using firmware update. I do not have any access to those devices to be able to set or edit crontab. I want to add some commands to one of the rauc scripts which is responsible for updating the firmware of those devices.

How should I do this or can you please tell me when we use crontab -e , in which file the following entry is saved?

* * * * * /etc/init.d/time-stamps-ntp

Thanks in advance

  • How did you add an entry using `crontab -l`? I think you mean `crontab -e`. – Barmar Jul 05 '22 at 13:50
  • If you can't access the crontab (i.e. you have not rights to access the computer which is running the cron-demon), or if you don't have the permissions, you are out of luck. It is a bit like asking how to login if you don't know the password. – user1934428 Jul 05 '22 at 14:31
