&gt; Is &nbsp;this possible?<br />
Short answer: NO.<br />
<br />
You need to write a script (or any other program) which checks if it is the 2'nd monday. Then call this script via cron each monday.<br />
I suggest perl with the Date::Manip module for the script.

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
