Hi,

the bug is :

2008/09/08 06:00:02 [SYSTEM] /usr/sbin/cron: PID 4032: (CRON) error 
(can't switch user context)

the problem is about cron-config under windows vista which install the 
cron service under the SYSTEM account instead od cyg_server account.

uname -a is :

         CYGWIN_NT-5.1 pcvista 1.5.25(0.156/4/2) 2008-06-12 19:34 i686 
Cygwin

nt2003 is not set to yes while it should.

the failing test is in get_NT() :

         [ "$nt" \> 5.1 ] && nt2003=yes

it should be :

         [ "$nt" \> 5.0 ] && nt2003=yes

or

         [ "$nt" = 5.1 -o "$nt" \> 5.1 ] && nt2003=yes

PS : Two lines above, nt2003 is mispelled as nt2004="" !

Regards,

Cyrille Lefevre
