How to Use These Tools in Cronjobs

To schedule any of these tools in a cronjob, follow these steps:

1. Access your server via SSH.
2. Edit the crontab file for the desired user:

   crontab -e

3. Add the desired command with the appropriate schedule. For example, to run a daily vulnerability export at 2 AM:

   0 2 * * * /opt/cpfence/app/setup/cpfmain --vuln-export

4. Save and exit the crontab file. The cronjob will now execute the specified command according to your schedule.

Best Practices

• Test commands manually before adding them to cronjobs to ensure they execute without errors.
• Review logs regularly to monitor the success or failure of cronjob executions.
• Keep your cPFence software updated to access the latest features and improvements.
