No, "GET" is a file, not a directory (see man GET for what it does). It'd be more like... If you have to: mkdir /usr/local/bin (But this probably already exists, and doesn't need making.) Then, either: cp /usr/bin/GET /usr/local/bin/ (Copy the GET file over to where the script wants it, from where you already have it.) Or: ln -s /usr/bin/GET /usr/local/bin/GET (Make a link to the real file, from where the script is looking for it. That saves on duplicate files. Or worse, from having two different versions of a file, because one got automatically updated, and the other didn't.) > So why does the cronjob example on the webpage have a URL in it, then? I don't really know, I don't know how the author's mind works. It'd be easier if they'd provided a comment saying put the URI to your feed where I've placed a dummy URI. Or prefaced it with a comment saying auto-update URI. But I didn't see a hint in any direction. I got a 404 error if I tried that link. Try experiementing with the URI to a feed, there. NB: I haven't downloaded and looked at it, I've just perused their website, as I noticed this thread. -- (This box runs FC6, my others run FC4 & FC5, in case that's important to the thread.)
