Greetings, Cygwinners.
Recently, cron has been giving me trouble on several machines. My user
'eagle' does not have the correct permissions to rename the tab file (or
modify anything in /var/cron).
I looked at the nt permissions of the /var/cron/tab direct and it is only
modifiable by the user SYSTEM, while on a machine with a well working
cron, that directory is modifiable by the Administrator's group ( of
which, the user 'eagle' is a member).
I just did an install from cygwin.com and I experienced this problem.
The other note is that there is a user 'S-1-0-0' which the OS doesn't seem
to recognize, since it puts a red question mark on the icon.
I would appreciate any helpful suggestions.
Here's the error when using crontab:
crontab: error renaming tabs/tmp.000884 to tabs/eagle
rename: Permission denied
Here the cygcheck info from the recent cygwin.com install:
