I need to schedule a job and it is not worth installing cron on our W2K3
hosts for just for this one backup application.

I have a name.sh script that if I run in a bash window it runs fine.

In a W2K3 command prompt window I have tried

	C:\cygwin\usr\bin\bash.exe -c "\local\adminscripts\name.sh"

And I get 

	bash-3.15$

If I type exit at the command prompt then the script runs bin at the command
prompt mode.

So the question is how do you start a unix shell script from the window
command prompt.

Robert
