    Advanced users may want to ensure that cron tasks are executed periodically.
-   To do this, visit the page "cron.php", which executes maintenance tasks on
-   behalf of installed modules. The URL of the cron.php page requires a "cron
-   key" to protect against unauthorized access.
-   Each cron key is automatically generated during installation and is specific
-   to your site. The full URL of the page, with cron key, is available in the
-   "Cron maintenance tasks" section of the "Status report page" at:
-
-          Administer > Reports > Status report
-
-   Most systems support using a crontab utility for automatically executing
-   tasks like visiting the cron.php page. The following example crontab line
-   uses wget to automatically visit the cron.php page each hour, on the hour:
-
-   0   *   *   *   *   wget -O - -q -t 1 http://www.example.com/cron.php?cron_key=RANDOMTEXT
-
-   Replace the text "http://www.example.com/cron.php?cron_key=RANDOMTEXT" in the
-   example with the full URL displayed under "Cron maintenance tasks" on the
-   "Status report" page.
-
-   More information about cron maintenance tasks are available in the help pages
-   and in Drupal's online handbook at http://drupal.org/cron. Example cron scripts
-   can be found in the scripts/ directory. (Note that these scripts must be
-   customized similar to the above example, to add your site-specific cron key
-   and domain name.)

+   visit the "Configuring cron jobs" page in the online handbook:
