$ whoami
micekiller
$ cd /etc/
$ mkpasswd.exe -l -g > passwd
$ cat passwd

now I change my uid to 18
$ cat passwd
..
micekiller:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:18:18:micekiller,U-SN2307128\micekiller,S-1-5-21-1123561945-682003330-839522115-1000:/home/micekiller:/bin/bash
...
restart cygwin, then
$ whoami
SYSTEM
$ cygrunsrv.exe -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron.exe -a -D -d "damn cron" -e "CYGWIN=ntsec"
$ cygrunsrv.exe -S cron
$ cygrunsrv.exe -Q cron
Service : cron
Display name : cygwin cron
Current State : Running
Controls Accepted : Stop
Command : /usr/sbin/cron.exe -D
$ crontab -l
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - edit the master and reinstall.
# (/tmp/crontab.1200 installed on Fri Oct 7 18:26:04 2005)

* 18 * * * /bin/date >> /usr/tmp/date.out 2>&1
the /usr/tmp permission is
$ ls -l /usr/
total 648
drwxrwxrwx+ 2 Administrators SYSTEM 0 Oct 7 14:22 tmp
...
finally the cron.pid permission is
$ ls -l /var/run/
total 6
-rwxrwxrwx 1 SYSTEM root 5 Oct 7 18:23 cron.pid
-rwxrwxrwx 1 Administrators SYSTEM 616 Oct 7 18:20 utmp
-rw-r--r-- 1 SYSTEM SYSTEM 24 Oct 7 18:09 ~x
I wait wait wait, but the /usr/tmp directory is always empty ...
$ ls -l /usr/tmp/
total 0
In my Application Log there are only message about LST, RELOAD, EDIT
etc...
I'm desperate :-)
Thanks
