Guillermo, thanks for this bit of education. My cron job on Bluehost is:
/usr/bin/wget -O - -q "http://xxx04.com/moodle/admin/cron.php"> /dev/null 2>&1, which seems to work fine.
Am I including some parameters that are not needed, or do I not need the ">"?
I know that in UNIX, there may be many ways to accomplish the same task. I am always trying to learn new techniques.
It has been awhile since I have used this form of the cron task. Quite honestly, I am not sure where I got this. I think that I found it over five years ago.
Thanks.
