cronjob

Is it possible to automaticly download xml files from one server to another server on a daily basis with PHP?

The goal is to create a webapplication in CakePHP which makes use of an xml report that comes from a online accountingserver.

So it can be done using a cronjob? But is cron supported with PHP?

Where can i configure that cronjob?

What kind of code should i write to get the file from the accountingserver in the first place?
