Timers

LL::NG use timers (or cron jobs) to:

  • purge old sessions

  • clean Handler cache

Attention

Depending on your OS and LL:NG version, you may still be using cron jobs. Section Cron jobs Jobs were handled through cron jobs for versions older than:

  • Debian: 2.18.0

  • Red Hat/Rocky Linux: 2.19.0

Edit systemd timers

If you need to modify the frequence of execution:

systemd edit liblemonldap-ng-portal-perl.timer
systemd edit liblemonldap-ng-handler-perl.timer

Attention

Names used here are for Debian family distributions, in RHEL they are named:

  • lemonldap-ng-portal.timer

  • lemonldap-ng-handler.timer

For example:

[Timer]
OnCalendar=*-*-* *:07:07

Cron jobs

As stated above, for older LL:NG versions, the timers were handled by cron jobs. If you need to modify the frequence of execution:

vi /etc/cron.d/liblemonldap-ng-portal-perl
vi /etc/cron.d/liblemonldap-ng-handler-perl
