Executing a command every 5 minutes

That is being interpreted as 5 past every hour.

Try:
bind time - "*5 * * * *" test
bind time - "*0 * * * *" test

Executing a command every 5 minutes

2002-02-13T16:22:00-04:00

I think this is a really simple question but i've been messing with it for a while and havn't been able to figure out how to get my script to execute something every 5 minutes.
I've been using

bind time - "5 * * * *" test

so this should run test every 5 mins.. for some reason it only seems to do it every hour or so.

any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
