There is no one-button solution, but if you want to schedule it to run hourly over a day then you need to put in 24 entries from the director.

This scheduling can be changed by others using the 'director'. Better implement this in shell script.

What does the "editability" of the settings by others have to do with the original question? Scheduling is not done by shell scripts, but by cron on UNIX, so if any other method is to be recommended, it would be by directly editing the crontabs.

Agreed that i deviated from the question. Sorry for that. What i as trying to convey is that doing a scheduling with Director is not as secure as doing in shell scripts

To expand a little on what Arnd said, you would 'Add to Schedule' 24 times.

That's what the cron.allow and at.allow files are for.
