Here's a little more info from the Event Viewer.

cron says:

The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( /USR/SBIN/CRON ) cannot
be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry
information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote
computer. The following information is part of the event: /USR/SBIN/CRON
: Win32 Process Id = 0x288 : Cygwin Process Id = 0x288 : (ryans) CMD
(/usr/bin/echo Cron works!).


and then it says:

The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( /USR/SBIN/CRON ) cannot
be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry
information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote
computer. The following information is part of the event: /USR/SBIN/CRON
: Win32 Process Id = 0x288 : Cygwin Process Id = 0x288 : (CRON) error
(can't switch user context).


How do I fix this "can't switch user context" error?

If I don't see you in the future, I'll see you in the pasture.
