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.
Has this been seen and resolved?
Do you have two baileyb users, one with uid 32638 and owning the crontab
and another one with uid 1006 and being setuid by cron?

-rw-r----- 1 32638 0 1173 2010-12-13 07:51 /var/cron/tabs/baileyb
Output from C:\cygwin\bin\id.exe
