I cannot see the source of your problem from the cygcheck listing. However, you are running a Windows .NET server. I do not know what effect that might have on cron. Please run the attached cron_diagnose.sh script. It is the latest version. I would like for you to eliminate the possibility that you ran an earlier version. > -----Original Message----- > From: René Haber [mailto:rene.haber@gmx.de] > Sent: Sunday, September 07, 2003 1:06 PM > To: cygwin@cygwin.com > Subject: cron: can't switch user context > > > Hello > > I've got Cygwin runnig on Windows 2003 and wanted to use the cron > daemon.
