Hi Corinna,
I'm having trouble with cygwin crontab. Basically, I'm trying to run a
cygwin perl script that does some scp from windows using windows putty-scp
to linux and solaris boxes. I've tested the cygwin perl script with
putty-scp and it works well, but not with cron.

I'm not sure if the following command will start the cron server on cygwin.
But I executed this.
cygrunsrv -I cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D

I got the above info from /usr/docs/Cygwin/cron.README

I'm not getting any basic cron stuff working also. Please help.
Thanks,
Smithesh.
