hi

I want to execute one script every night 9.00 and stop or kill that script that script morning 9.00 clock.

how can i do it.

executing is no problem to using cron job but how to killing the process automatically.

Dear venky145,
Salam,

Use crontab to achieve this goal.

Code: Select all

1 18 * * * exec /path/to/the/run.script
1 09 * * * exec /path/to/the/kill.script

Best Regards.
