Thanks for your help Corinna.

You seem to imply that I don't need to replace root with SYSTEM (or was the
below referring to the crontab/cron permissions problem?).  Presuming it
was, I agree as I've tried the standard cygwin install of cron (without
re-compiling my self), and I have the same "CAN'T OPEN (tabs/username)"
error message.

I'll post once I've got to the bottom of it - if no one beats me to it.  I
never let these things beat me :)

cheers
dan

Uh, no.  I just saw that it's not needed.  Don't care.  The
ownership is no problem for Cygwin.
