RE: cron issue

[Nelson Pereira <npereira at videotron dot ca>]

You had to install Sendmail to do this right?

How did you do that? Did you follow a howto article or dsomething?
I need to install sendmail also but from what I have read, sendmail
doesn?t work on cygwin...

I get this:

The owner and the Administrators need
to have ..x permission to /usr/sbin/sendmail.
Here are the current permissions:
ls: /usr/sbin/sendmail: No such file or directory

Any help you can provide to help me install sendmail would be greatly
appreciated

I've configured cron using cron-config running as a service with the
SERVICE account and as a service with myself.? Initially, I created a
crontab to run an rsync backup, which never initiated.? I then opted for
something simple and obvious, sending the date to a file.? I've attached
my log, crontab and the cygcheck.?


I've verified that the service is running (under XP) and that cron is
running.?
