I will using a server verison of linux.
I want my computer to do certain events at certain times.
For example at noon I want it to use clamav to scan the shared foldor
at 11:55 I want it to do a restart
When it boots up there are certain applications I want it to run.
At 6:00 am I want it to launch a magic packet that will boot up my main computer.
I know the commands on if I am physical at the computer, but I want it to do this while I am away and automatically.

I have Ubuntu Linux but I dont know the answer. You should go to http://www.ubuntu.com/support or https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu to post question.
http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/alarm-clock . Or other version. This does have command line features and may be what your looking for.
The starting of certain applications at boot can be accomplished with System->Preferences->Startup Applications.
The rest would probably have to be done with a bash script, I think.
