title: Pass variable through shell script via crontab?
body: <p>Is there a way to pass a variable through a cron job? Example, currently I have a cron job setup like so:</p>
  
  <p><code>* * * * * /bin/bash /Volumes/raid/farm_script/_apps/_scripts/farm_ping.sh</code></p>
  
  <p>I'm wondering, is it possible to pass through info to the shell script from the cron job? Something similar to this perhaps:</p>
  
  <p><code>* * * * * /bin/bash /Volumes/raid/farm_script/_apps/_scripts/farm_ping.sh 192.168.2.17</code></p>
  
  <p>If so, how could I access this inside the <code>farm_ping.sh</code> file?</p>
