  Not exactly!

  AYS?  I take it you say this because you were logged in as that user when
you ran crontab?

  Also not exactly!

  Heh.  Let me be clearer.  It seems to me that you want cron to run as user
mqdisp rather than user SYSTEM.  SYSTEM is a local account; it has utmost
(rooter-than-root) priviliges on your local machine but it's not a member of
the domain and has no access rights there.

  Yep, that's mqdisp's sid, not SYSTEM's.

  I think the real question is, did you use the --user and --passwd options
to cygrunsrv when you installed crond?  This tells cygrunsrv to use the
windoze 'RunAs' service to start crond as the user you choose.
