FYI, there is a cron-config script that would have done everything for you. It will also check the sanity of the environment See also the cron README file in /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/ The command itself may have produced some info. If /usr/sbin/sendmail is a link to /usr/bin/cronlog any command output is placed in ~/cron.log Pierre -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
