Hi
I had been happily using 'cron' on cygwin for quite a while. After updating
the user password using cron-config, suddenly cron refuses to read my cron
tab, putting 'WRONG FILE OWNER' in the Windows application log.
Have you stopped and restarted the cron service so that it's running with
the current password for baileyb?
