    When trying to plug my newly created 'cron.txt' file into crontab I get this error:

    "cron.txt":2: premature EOF
    errors in crontab file, can't install.

    What's in your cron.txt? Did you save it with Unix linebreaks instead of Windows linebreaks?

    I tried and it works great! Maybe you created cron file with a windows editor?
    In Windows, we have CR& LF to go to new line! In Linux, just only one for new line!
    Double check again and it's better create cron file with nano (I find it's simpler than vi)
