I had programmed a cronjob to restart a service with an apparent memory leak weekly and got an email saying that the `killproc` command wasn't found.

That's in /sbin/killproc and I don't want to modify the service script, even though I'd prefer it to use absolute paths so I'm opting to weasel my fix by way of cron.

So, I don't want to set the `PATH` at the top of the crontab file as per the man page apparently says (according to other posts I've seen on the internet, not my man page). How can I structure my crontab line to set one path variable (and not squash root's PATH altogether) just for this script?

**tl;dr;**

This is what I want to do

```
0 0 * * 0 /etc/init.d/tic_minus restart

```

this is what I want to avoid
