Another way to add # in front of the update Gravity command in crontab #117

Closed slyfox1186 closed 2 years ago

Here is a good way to make sure the default entry to update gravity stays commented out.

Just add/append this to /etc/crontab

# Disable Pi-hole's default update gravity command for jacklul's script to take over
* * * * *   root    sed -i 's/29 4   \* \* 7   root/#29 4   \* \* 7   root/g' /etc/cron.d/pihole

I believe the minutes are randomized (or used to be?) so it won't work for everyone

If that is true the you are correct.
