Running cygwin cron under WinXP SP1


I have just installed the latest cygwin and set up cron to run using

cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D
cygrunsrv -S cron

It is running as a service (both in XP task manager and in ps -ef)

But I can't get it to execute commands. I have tried a crontab as both /etc/crontab and /var/cron/tabs/Russell

Is there an FAQ for getting cron running under cygwin? I can't been able to find one.

Thanks

Russell
