Problems Setting Up Crontab

Are there any instructions on setting up the crontab for D7? I notice things are different. Normally I would set up something like this for D6:

01 01 * * *  /usr/bin/php -q /home/xxxxxx/public_html/periodic/cmd.php
*/10 * * * *  /usr/bin/php -q /home/xxxxxx/public_html/periodic/notifies.php
01 * * * *  /usr/bin/php -q /home/xxxxxx/public_html/periodic/cupid.php

But cmd/notifies/cupid do not exist any more. They seemed to have been replaced by cron.php. During the D7 set up it suggests * * * * * for the set up of cron which effective means that the mail account I am using gets spammed with periodic etc through out the day (presumably I need to amend something in cron.php? I have not looked in cron.php yet as I normally expect things to be server on a plate to me (only kidding!!!)). I am sure this subject has been broached but I have just missed it. Can someone point me toward a forum posting about this or boonex documentation. Thanks.

the cron jobs are now set in the mysql database under sys_cron_jobs, you can change minutes from there if you have phpmyadmin.
