You should run command 'crontab -e', if you want that commands to be executed with your access rights, or 'crontab -e -u <username>' if you want to execute then with access rights of some other user (you should be root to modify other user's crontab). Then, in the editor which will be run in reply to the command, add the following line to crontab: 0 6 * * Sun <you_command_(find ...)_here> If you consider a day other than Sunday as end of week, change the name of day in the line above. If you need to execute more than one command at that time, repeat the line as necessary, changing the command. When you close the editor (saving your changes in the crontab, of course), the new, edited crontab will be automatically installed. Alexey Fadyushin.
