If you run mrtg from the /etc/crontab it would look like */5 * * * * root /path/to/thing_to_execute Maybe followed by "> /dev/null 2>&1" to redirect the output it produces to electronic nirvana. If you create a crontab by using "crontab -u USER -e", then the user as which the cronjob shall run is not part of the instructions line. And keep in mind that by default cron has not a full path environment set. So better use absolute paths.
