Hello.

I installed cygwin on several windows XP clients, and now I've got to
set up a cron service, for the users to be able to backup their data
(the crontabs will contains rsync calls).

I tried several ways to set up the cron daemon, but i failed to find
the good one... (i.e. using only the postinstall scripts, for a silent
install) .

So what's the best way to do a silent install of the cron daemon as a
service for windows post containing only domain users ?

(At the end, the users will only have an interface to select the files
they want to backup, and the program will modify the cron tabs with
rsync calls)

Have a good day.
