It should be under /ect/crontab,

But my method does not seem to be the best, its creating a lot of exta logs.

*/5 * * * * root /usr/bin/wget http://*.*.*.*/aatrade/scheduler.php?swordfish=password -q -t 5 -b -o /dev/null

That line creates an email to root with the log of the Wget even though I have it set to quite also its dumping the results of the file to /root/filename

Any one else using SuSE? or have any Idea wtf i am doing?

You try this string?

/usr/bin/wget --quiet -O /dev/null http://yourserver/scheduler.php?swordfish=yourpassword

Log into the admin area and there you can manually run the scheduler and see if it completes.
Also check your cron job is still setup and correct.

Your ISP may have blocked your ability to use that in crontabs. They may have seen it in the logs and figured it was someone trying to hack their servers.
