Linux-Noob Forums - how to rotate your favicon.ico and logo in IPB hourly

for the favicon.ico use this

stick it in /etc/cron.hourly/changeico.sh

Code:
#!/bin/sh

SOURCEDIR="/usr/local/apache/htdocs/favicon/"

TARGETFILE="/usr/local/apache/htdocs/forums/favicon.ico"

NUM=`ls -1 $SOURCEDIR|wc -l`

cp -f $SOURCEDIR`ls -1 $SOURCEDIR|head -n $[$RANDOM%$NUM+1]|tail -n1` $TARGETFILE

for the IPB logo (which youve changed to your own ! - i use 8 different ones)

try this

stick it in /etc/cron.hourly/changelogo.sh

Code:
#!/bin/sh

SOURCEDIR="/usr/local/apache/htdocs/logos/"

TARGETFILE="/usr/local/apache/htdocs/forums/style_images/1/logo4.gif"

NUM=`ls -1 $SOURCEDIR|wc -l`

cp -f $SOURCEDIR`ls -1 $SOURCEDIR|head -n $[$RANDOM%$NUM+1]|tail -n1` $TARGETFILE

both files above need to executable

do
