What is the “cron” function you mention in the server requirements?

Cron is a function on a Unix web server that enables programs/cgi scripts to be run automatically at a certain time each day, week or month. With SRW, cron is used to send automatic email renewals and auto-delete websites. Some host providers do NOT allow you to run “cron jobs” on your web site. Ask your host provider’s tech support if you are allowed to run a “cron job” on your web site. If not, we have a built in feature you can use that will perform the function of the cron with a push of a button from your admin panel.

Cron is a function on a Unix web server that enables programs to run automatically at a set times. With WAW, cron is used to run the renewal program that deletes expired ads and sends renewal emails. Some host providers do NOT allow cronjobs to be run. In cases (such as on NT servers) where cronjobs cannot be run, we have included a button in the Admin Panel, which you can use to run the renewal program.
