Hi,
I used Cygwin 1.3.10 in w2k server. When a user run
cron, the home
directory is /cygdrive/f/home/user e.g,
16 * * * * echo $HOME > /cygdrive/f/home/user/testfile
in testfile, the output:
/cygdrive/c
In another w2k server, i also install Cygwin 1.3.10,
user also run the
above cron, also with home directory /cygdrive/f
the testfile give,
/cygdrive/f/home/user
I used the same setting in Cygwin for the above two
servers. Any idea ?
thanks,
bella
