Cron command for Dedicated Servers?

Hello,
I want to use the cron instead of vBSEO Sitemap Generator's default schedule task.

What is the command I need to put at the crontab to run the sitemap generator once daily at midnight? I am using CentOS 5.7 64bit

Thanks

Hello ,

You can check readme.html file for Sitemap Generator. It has a specific section that explains what you are asking.

Hello Mert,
I looked at the readme file, but can not fine the section to setup a cron (except the section where it tells how to setup a schedule task from AdminCP). May be I am missing it somehow.
Anyway, is this good?

Code:

0 2 * * * root /usr/lib/php /home/username/public_html/vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_sitemap.php

Assuming the paths are correct, that should work at 2am server time.

Oops..
What shall I put to run it at 02:00an server time?

I'm sorry, it is correct as stands for 2am.

Code:

*     *     *   *    *        command to be executed
