You want a cygwin app called cygrunsrv, It is a wrapper in esence to run cygwin based daemons under windows service control.
A good starting point to get cron running is actually from the mailman on 2000 FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=edit&file=faq05.002.htp Just extract the "cron" setup info from there.
