Via the Director's 'Add to Schedule' option, no script needed.

Your UNIX administrator may need to configure your user id into the cron.allow (and/or at.allow) file.

Martin - Help you how? Are you having a problem? If so, please state it, otherwise how do we know how to help you?

Otherwise it literally is as simple as clicking on 'Add to Schedule', then 'Every' and entering a time of 6pm. Supply the parameter values needed and cron will run your job every day at 6pm.

If you need a script to run a job using the 'dsjob' command, then the post that Rasi linked to is one such example. Then you'll need to do your own scheduling via cron or an enterprise scheduler like Control-M.
