john-cronjob1
Installs or removes the john cronjob
Usage
john-cronjob {install | remove}
Overview
This manual page describes the john-cronjob script, an add-on to the john package. john-cronjob is used to install or remove a cronjob that will run automatically every day, trying to crack passwords (a script will be placed under /etc/cron.daily). When the script is called, it will check if an instance of john is already running. If not, it will start a new john(1) process, and then run the mailer(1) script.
When installing or removing the cronjob, this script will never touch a symlink.
