      Hello,

      This is my first post here so please excuse any mistakes/etiquette breaches

      My question to you is this:

      Is it possible to make PfSense beep every hour?

      I.e. with a cron script etc.

      Thanks,
      collinsl

            The command is 'beep'. Just create a cron job to run 'beep' every hour. If you like, there is a cron job package with a nice GUI.
