I am attempting to set up an automatic poll to occur ever so often. 6 hours at the moment. When I set the cron up to poll my host with the settings 0 6 ( 0 min, 6 hours ) it never goes off. What else am I
missing?

It's been a while since I poked at these things... I'd say that that would go off at 0600hrs every day, like once only. What you need is
"0 */6", I think. It should then go off at: 0000, 0600, 1200. and, 1800hrs.
Did that help?
Thats what I had it for in my first attempt, and it never went off. I
even went as far at 0 1 for hourly, never saw it go off as per the logs
at least.

I don't know why it never fires, I would think that should fire at 0
min, 6 hour. (not every six hours). I think that what you might wantwould be 0 6,12,18,24 * * * . I'm not 100% sure about the 24,
and to becautious I would set the cron to be something like 50
5,11,17,23 * * *which would poll at 05:50, 11:50, 17:50 and 23:50.
If that does not fire for you, then something else is wrong.

WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER. Thank you very much Dale,
that was the issue. I did a test with it for hourly on the
1/2hr, 30 0,1,2,etc etc and it appears to be working. Now
to reduce the number of times I poll a day. Seems a little,
over zealous.

This didn't work for me.
I used this cron to poll every 15 min:
0,15,30,45 * * * *
But it never triggered, UNTIL I added a CM flag to the Nodes Overrides
in TCP/IP Daemon (last tab) for this specific node.
Hope this helps.
