cronjob query

Dear Sun Forum users,

I need help to schedule a job within crontab to run a job on the Monday before every 2nd Thursday. This is to be done every month and once only. It could also be interrupted as a job to run 4 days after every first Thursday.

Would really appreciate, if you suggest any comments/advice on this.

Many thanks

With plain cron this isn't possible or you need to write a script that you call on interval that checks if it could run and knows the state of the job. But then again you are doing the same as what autosys or meastro are doing. I know there is also an Open Source project trying to do the same as autosys, but I don't have the link now.
