Hi,

Can anyone give me any more useful examples of using / help with using at?
I'm trying to run this command, but its silently failing, and the man page really isn't that helpful for a newbie...

syntax error. Last token seen: s

user at jon:~# at "scp jt.tar.gz 10.2.0.58:/opt/ltsp/" 1800

syntax error. Last token seen: s
Garbled time
user at jon:~# at 6pm "scp jt.tar.gz 10.2.0.58:/opt/ltsp/"

Any ideas/suggestions?
