Subj:   Is cron job better or a script that runs in background having sleep
 
From:   Ganga, Sandeep Kumar

Hi,

Having a shell script that reads messages file and send the email notification using telnet once a day with the errors having grep and other commands to do so.

Want to know if creating cronjob is good or a shell script running in background having sleep makes sense.

     nohup  &
     While [ true ]
     Do
