Is it possible for me to schedule cron to say run script A on the first
Friday of the month, script B on the second Friday of the month, script C,
etc.?
I think you can make cronjob run on every Friday, and in your script
check if date is 2nd (3rd) Friday.
OTOH, if you specify days and day of week, I think they will both match,
which is not what you want.
I found this with google:
<http://www.computing.net/unix/wwwboard/forum/2731.html>
Which leads to something along these lines ...
day=`date +%d`
if [ $day -ge 8 -o $day -le 14 ]; then
echo '2nd Friday'
# do F2
elif [ $day -ge 15 -o $day -le 21 ]; then
echo '3rd Friday'
# do F3
fiHTH,
-Bob
