      Hi I have been trying to work with the at command, but won't see to execute the task, I just see the queue but is all.

      at now
      /root/scripts/at.sh
      Job 11 will be executed using /bin/sh

      List:

      at -l
      Date                            Owner          Queue  Job#
      Mon Dec  3 12:48:00 PST 2012    root            c      1
      Mon Dec  3 12:17:00 PST 2012    root            c      2
      Sat Mar 24 14:56:00 PST 2012    root            c      11

      If I want to delete a job:

      at -r 1
      at: c0000101587c00: Permission denied

      Jobs dir:

      /var/at/jobs(125): ls -l
      total 40

      Does this command works?

      I want to run a job only once every time my pfsense machine start.

      Have other way to do it?

      Pfsense 2.0.1 nanobsd.

      Thanks.

        I've never seen anyone trying to use at on pfSense, I don't think it's meant to work.

        To run something at bootup, look at the shellcmd package. It lets you setup commands to run at boot time.
