I'm doing good just to be able to use Cygwin on my own workstation.  Use
Samba?  The establishment will never go for it.  I'm a Unix dude in an NT

as far as i know the SYSTEM-Account cannot acces any network drives.

you should perhaps su to your userid - altough this should already be 
done by cron itself (if the cronjobs are not scheduled to run as root).
