Changes from -4 to -5: ====================== Crontab now changes group membership to be SYSTEM on the crontab files and sets the permissions to 640. That should allow cron to work immediately with the crontab files created by crontab. Note that this requires that /etc/group has been created and contains the default SYSTEM entry, gid 18. DON'T CHANGE THAT! ======================================================================= Cron is neither patched for nor tested on 9x/ME. If it doesn't work, feel free to send me patches to accomodate 9x/ME. If you have problems, I assume it will have to do with file permission or user identity checks, probably. ======================================================================= Send patches and error reports to To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Run setup and answer all of the questions. The mirrors below have the latest version of this package: ftp://mirrors.rcn.net/mirrors/sources.redhat.com/cygwin/ (US) ftp://ftp.mirror.ac.uk/sites/sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/cygwin/ (UK) ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/mirrors/cygnus/ (Germany) Note that if this is the first time that you've run the new GUI version of setup, it will currently download the whole cygwin net release again. After this point it will only download what is needed. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com . I would appreciate if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general. If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is the appropriate place. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe to the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.
