It's possible that single line crontab command could have been temporary
in nature. How you make it permanent is in one of a couple ways. You
have choices here. Do you want the crontab command to run from a user
account or on a system-wide basis? If on a system-wide basis try man -k
crontab and read the entry you haven't read yet, it'll talk about
/etc/crontab file structure and perhaps /etc/crontab. If in a user
account is good enough, type crontab -e and hit enter. You'll be running
an editor in a temporary file key the rest of that crontab command into
that file, on one line if it's a single line command then on the next line
you'll probably need to do :wq and that will save your cron job for you.
Once that's saved, check it with crontab -l and hit enter. If you don't
read back exactly the command you typed in, then crontab -e and erase
everything in the file and repeat until you get it right.
