Re: cron fails to start as a service in Win2k3R2 64bit

Pierre,

I'm trying it now. No, I didn't know this was the preferred method of 
installing cron as a service. I've been installing/reinstalling 
everything from the cygwin *setup.exe*.

I've looked at the log files and they seem pretty unremarkable. I'll run 
cronbug after I try the cron-config command.

Thanks very much for your time and support...

Blaine
