cron doesn't work on my cygwin.
I created an /etc/cron.d/notepad file containing the following line:
* * * * * Administrator notepad
And nothing happens.
So I guess that cron doesn't work on my system.
Has anyone managed to automate rdiff-backup on a windows machine?
Please respond
Thanks,

Cygwin works with cron, I believe it is a package you can add with the
setup.exe that installs Cygwin. Just re-download if you've deleted it.
I have cron installed and successfully added a crontab, but it is not
yet working for automated backups. I may have written my crontab entry
wrong, I haven't had time to debug.
