Placed text file(s) in Interchange install dir etc/Jobs/google_sitemaps
with content:
[google-sitemap domain="www.mydomain.de"
         sitemap_name='sitemap_tj_de.xml'
         sitemap_subdir=html
         products=1
         menus="catalog/brands catalog/Sieraden"
         default_changefreq="weekly"
         ping_google=1
][/google-sitemap]


Cron:
su -f -c '/usr/local/interchange/bin/interchange 
--runjobs=mycatalog=google_sitemaps' interch


variable table:
SERVER_NAME     www.mydomain.com


Aliases for catalog 'mycatalog' in interchange.cfg:
Catalog  mycatalog directory       /catalog/install/dir/mycatalog
Catalog  mycatalog script          www.mydomain.com/cgi-bin/mycatalog
Catalog  mycatalog alias           www.mydomain.com
Catalog  mycatalog alias           www.mydomain.de
Catalog  mycatalog alias           www.mydomain.nl
etc.
