Hi Fish, hoping I can assist, been using a2p for a while now on a number of sites.

First off I would recommend you rename automate.php to something more secure. Next step, your cron command should be similar to this...

Code:
wget -q http://_yourdomain_.co.uk/wp-content/plugins/auction2post/automate.php -O /dev/null
I am pretty sure you need to access automate.php using wget, lynx or curl (i.e. a browser fetch and not a php command) - I'm hoping to be chatting with radio later so I'll ask to confirm.

Hope this helps, you could also post on the a2p forum.
