For example, run your job like so; */1 * * * * script.sh and have the script do some process checking: #! /bin/sh if [ $(ps aux | grep script.sh | grep -v grep) ]; then <your script here> That will make sure it runs every minute, without overlapping itself. When I write code that needs to be run a preset amount of time, I generally try to find a way to use Cron -- why recreate what is already available? -- http://pobega.wordpress.com http://identica/pobega
