Yes they are (Debian) Linux shell accounts, so you can run your own programs including cron...  but being shared hosting there are a few restrictions, such as don't chew up excessive resources, and don't run servers beyond the ones they provide (probably due to the security risk).

Here's the related dreamhost wiki article: http://wiki.dreamhost.com/KB_/_Unix_/_Cron_Jobs_and_Persistent_Processes

Let me know if there are any more questions I can answer.

Those are Linux shell accounts?  Like on MLUG?

Can you run your own programs on their system?
