Not sure what you mean by epoch, and I'm not familiar with a module which would do it. A daily cron job should do it. I would use an "expiry" date, calculated as current date/month plus one. eg <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Arial,Helvetica,sans serif">code:</font><HR> ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) = localtime(time); @months = (Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun,Jul,Aug,Sept,Oct,Nov,Dec); $NextMonth = ($mon + 1) % 12; # use remainder so that it works in December too! $Expiry = "@months[$NextMonth] $mday"; </pre><HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Then in the cron job, grep for the day and if the month is this month, delete em, suspend em or whatever...
