Poormanscron is what its name indicates: a last desperate attempt to get cron
running. Setting up a cron job gives you much more power.
Just not ethat you must not call the file cron.php! you should call it from
the online place. so not /var/www/cron.php byt
http://www/example.com/cron.php
But really, all the details are in the handbook on drupal.org
