Would this cron job work?

Hi

I need a cron job to delete files in a folder every 2 or 3 days.

I will set it up from directadmin.

I know how to do the date settings, but would this command work.

cd /(file name) rm fr *

I'm not sure about directadmin but you can try
rm -rf /path/to/your/folder

You may also need to use the tilde character to refer to your home directory. Something like

rm -rf ~/path/to/*
