When a user run cron, the home directory is /cygdrive/f/home/user e.g, 16 * * * * echo $HOME > /cygdrive/f/home/user/testfile in testfile, the output: /cygdrive/c In another w2k server, i also install Cygwin 1.3.10, user also run the above cron, also with home directory /cygdrive/f the testfile give, /cygdrive/f/home/user I used the same setting in Cygwin for the above two servers. Any idea ? thanks, bella __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
