Run AIDE at the selected time of the week

Question

How can I configure aide linux to start at the selected time of the week, e.g. on Sundays at 9?

Answer 1

Do a which aide and copy the result (assuming /usr/bin/aide)

Add a line to crontab -e with format

0 9 * * Sun /usr/bin/aide --check 

OR to /etc/crontab:

0 9 * * Sun {user} /usr/bin/aide --check 

• (1st 5: minutes, hours, day of month, month, day)
• replace {user} by your username
• Sun can be replaced by either 0 or 7.
