The two service processes started, but cron did not and I cannot get the
Z-shell to start correctly.

The commands in the cygwin.bat file are:

    @echo off
    c:
    chdir c:\cygwin\bin
    rxvt -e zsh --login -i

Sometimes it will flash on the screen and go away, other times the terminal
will stay on the screen, but no prompt and whatever characters are entered
are ignored.

I got a Z-shell by starting CMD and entering: zsh --login -i

When it started it bitched about a parse error near "\n" at the end of the
.zlogin file, but not .zshenv, .zshrc or .zalias.  Is that a bug?

I got cron restarted by rerunning cron-config and doing a reinstall and
starting it as me (I'm the only user).

Now I need to know why the rxvt program is not working correctly.
