Make sure to kill this off afterwards. From the man page for "at": at, batch, atq, atrm are all disabled by default on Mac OS X. Each of these commands depend on the execution of atrun(8) which has been dis- abled due to power management concerns. Those who would like to use these commands, must first (as root) re-enable atrun by running: launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.atrun.plist
