[Cialug] Fwd: Run Once via crontab

[kristau]

Shamelessly ripped off from http://goo.gl/iJfQXa

Directories:
mkdir -p /etc/local/runonce.d/run
chmod -R 700 /etc/local/runonce.d

Crontab entry (root):
# Run any scripts present under /etc/local/runonce.d after rebooting:
@reboot         /usr/local/bin/runonce

Script /usr/local/bin/runonce:
#!/bin/sh

# runonce: Run these scripts once at reboot (see crontab), then move them
so they don't run again.

cd /etc/local/runonce.d
for file in *
do
    if [ ! -f "$file" ]
    then
        continue
    fi
    "/etc/local/runonce.d/$file"
#    mv "$file" "/etc/local/runonce.d/ran/$file.$(date +%Y%m%dT%H%M%S)"
     mv "$file" "./ran/$file.$(date +%Y%m%dT%H%M%S)"
    logger -t runonce -p local3.info "$file"
done
