Sometime i want to download a file to my cPanel account (shared hosting server), or run mysqldump or mysql import. However i don't have a SSH access and i don't want to disturb the support department. So i will need to set up a cron job and run it once time , then delete the cron job.
So, my question is, how to make the cron job run immediately? Or how to know the server time so that we can schedule the cron job to run the next minute?
The function date() in php doen't seem to be reliable/consistent with the real server time for the cron job, if i'm not mistaken.
Thanks!
