Crontab seems not to work

["M.C. Vernon" <mcv21@cus.cam.ac.uk>]

Hi all,

	I want to run analog once per week. as root I do
crontab -e

and have the following crontab file:

5 3 ** 2        /usr/bin/analog

Why doesn't this do anything?

(I have adjusted this to:

5 3 * * 2        /usr/bin/analog

as an expt., but I'm not confidant of success)

Yours,

Matthew
