Re: Very annoying problem with cron


Sorry damn mailc cut off the last. If anyone could help that would be great.
Like i said i have installed the latest snapshots which haven't worked on 6
systems that i have cygwin 1.3.11 running on.

If you need any more info on the system(s) or want me to run diags just get
back with an e-mail.

Cheers,
