Unfortunately, it didn't work out. After I installed the service by $ cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D I ran $ cygrunsrv -S cron it generates $ cygrunsrv -S cron cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062: The service has not been started. I got this same error when I worked with '$ net start cron'. My Win2K professional has been working fine, and I freshly installed 'cygwin', this is the first deamon I'm working on, so what's the problem? Thank you.
