[Dxspider-support] Keps

Hello!

Here is what I do:
in /etc/crontab there is the line:

1 1 * * 7 root /spider/perl/kepler

and /spider/perl/kepler looks like this:

#!/bin/sh
cd /spider/perl
rm nasa.all
wget http://www.amsat.org/amsat/ftp/keps/current/nasa.all
./convkeps.pl nasa.all

As a root of the system I get an email everytime this script is run, which
reminds me (automagically) to do a load/keps as a sysop in my S50DXS node. I
don't how to
automate this last step and would be glad to learn.
