#AskFedi: is there a script / way to automate the restart of dnsmasq every 24 hours… on a VPS that runs on Debian 12?

(Funny how this would have sounded like a foreign language to me a mere year ago) 😆

Update: THANK YOU for the cronjob recommendation. Now looking for a tutorial that’s easy to follow for a newbie like me 😅

I really appreciate all the advice, YOU’RE THE BEST 🏆

@elena systemctl restart dnsmasq in a file under /etc/cron.daily ?

@bortzmeyer @elena yep, cron is the way to go. Also, curious, why do you need it?

@ed @elena Yes, removing dnsmasq would be a better idea :-)
