securing a cronJob ?

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Hi

I have a table where I save any cron Jobs needed for the system.

I save action urls so a simple wget(actionUrl) does the job

but offcourse I wouldn’t want them to be run by an outside call

which wasn’t controlled

so I’m wondering how to secure it properly ?

with htaccess ?

php admin type log in ?

anybodies point of view on this would be warmly appreciated ?

is there a way of executing actions with system or apache user ?

and filter the action’s access this way
