A quick introduction to cron for people who want to manage scheduled and recurring tasks on Linux systems. This is useful for system administrators, developers/programmers, and everyone who wants to do things like

- occasionally cleaning out old files
- removing development clutter
- scheduling things on servers or other remote machines

We also touch on slightly more advanced topics such as security considerations and cron.{allow,deny}
