Post subject:  How to reboot server weekly

I want to write some scripts that will reboot the server machine every week at a certain time.

When the server reboots, I need it to load all the servers in their appropriate screens.

How can I do something like this?

in /etc/crontab

For the server to reboot at 4AM every wednesday (Day of Week 0=Sun, 7= Sat)
00 4 * * 3 root /usr/bin/reboot


To start the servers upon reboot in the same file (/etc/crontab)
@reboot gamer screen -A..... or the path to the shell script



not sure if the script will fail if it doesn't find the screen to kill. Testing needed.

So I would need one screen for each of the servers? And thus a seperate line starting with @reboot gamer... for each?

I have a different shell script that calls a kill screen which still works even if the screen doesn't exist, so I think it would work to just write a path to the script.

@reboot gamer /home/gamer/cstrike/pub/pub.sh
