Hello, there!

I have to evaluate my notebook with crontab (Solaris).
I have my.m script for this which contains:

lnk = LinkLaunch["/opt/Mathematica/4.2/bin/Mathematica -mathlink"] 
$FrontEnd = FrontEndObject[lnk]


Unprotect[$Notebooks]
$Notebooks = True

instruction.
This script works fine with Windows 
math.exe < my.m
It opens math, evaluate notebook and closing math w/o problem.

So, how i can do this with unix ?
Since my .m file contains NotebookOpen function call it requires Xterm
for launching my script. But i need evaluate it with my crontab...

Is it possible to do this ?
I've tried to do this with vncserver (redirect DISPLAY to VNC) but w/o
succses
;( Seems Math open some message boxes which i have to click...
May be i should create init.m file with instruction 'no warning' ? 
I'm a new one with Math and don't know how i can do this.

So, could anyone give me a solution or advice for my task ?

Thanks,
 Alexander Gusev.
