PHP as a Cron CentOS/Fedora
When adding a PHP script as a cron you need to ensure that you include the full PHP directory, simply running the following will not allow the script to run:
30 6 * * * php -q public_html/clients/scripts/mycron.php
Using the following will allow the PHP script to be used within a cron process:
30 6 * * * /usr/local/bin/php -q /home/username/public_html/clients/admin/mycron.php
Note how we need to utilise the full directory structure to ensure both the PHP process is called correctly and has the full directory of your PHP script.

Jared - IAPS Security Services, L.L.C.Excellent support; good people to work with. Jon and Lee have been great to deal with, and I would not hesitate to recommend Racksrv. They do a very good job of communicating with clients, and are always quick to answer any queries.
David - Britain Express LimitedRackSRV provided me everything I needed, apart from Windows VPS's, I am not a fan of linux and I needed a windows VPS for game servers. If you're a linux fan or don't need windows then RackSRV will exceed your expectations!
