Hi, Platform is W2K, user is a member of Administrators group. Cron is installed as a service and started as follows:
cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D cygrunsrv -S cron Services applet in MMC shows cron service is installed under LocalSystem account and started. /etc/group has SYSTEM entry with gid 18. $CYGWIN is 'ntsec' crontab has a "ls -l" command that gets scheduled every 5 minutes. But, I see the following in event log every 5 minutes: "...(CRON) error (can't switch user context)." Can anybody comment on this? Thank you. --alper -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
