- Subject: 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
