Ok, it's that SYSTEM running through cygwin has no access to the disk. I
thought it would work because other scripts I have work, but they don't
access the disk. mysqldump works because that command doesn't access the
disk, but tells a running process (mysql) to access the disk.

So someone else wrote the script to run in DOS, and we've dropped the idea
of scripting scheduled tasks with cygwin. Unless I can figure out how to get
SYSTEM access to the disk through it. :)

Thanks for your responses.
