For those of you who run IRC bouncers and the like on pilot but aren't
always around to bring them back up after the maintenance reboots:
The cron in most Linux distros of the day allows you to specify
"@reboot" in lieu of the usual 5-number time specification.
By way of example, if I want ZNC to start up when the box does:
kjotte at pilot:~$ crontab -e
You will be taken into an editor. Add this line to the file:
@reboot /usr/bin/znc
Save the file and exit the editor. The crontab file will be verified and
installed. Voilà!
