I've installed the cron service as described in another message in this 
newsgroup. When I try to start the service though I get the following:

"Could not start the cygwin cron service. The service did not return an 
error. This could be in internal windows error or an internal service 
error"

Also, if I try to edit my crontab file with "crontab -e", when I go to save 
it I get "chown: Invalid argument"

What do I need to do to fix these? TIA
