MAC OS X Server - Automatic delete TMP files

HI,

Somebody knows how to program a automatic task to delete alla the TMP CS3 or office files every week or day in my MAC OS X Server.

My server works like a email, file and sharing server.

TXS,
Tiburm

Adding a task for it in cron's daily or weekly would do it, easiest way to add it would be with Cronnix.

Or you could do an AppleScipt to run it weekly, or make an Automator action and add both to run daily or weekly...
Is this on 10.4 or 10.5 Server?

I managed to "migrate" my crontabs to launchd, as Apple advised. In another thread I noted that cron would run reliably only the jobs owned by root and administrators, not those owned by plain users. Then ...

Dang me for a fool, I rebooted my 10.5.1 server. Now even launchd ignores users.
