OK, let's just start with cron (ignoring the ssh
problem for the moment.

$ ./cron_diagnose.sh
cron_diagnose.sh 1.5

This script did not find any errors in your crontab setup.
If you are still unable to get cron to work, then try
shutting down the cron service, uninstalling it,
reinstalling it, and restarting it.

The following commands will do that:
  $ cygrunsrv --stop cron
  $ cygrunsrv --remove cron
  $ cygrunsrv --install cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D
  $ cygrunsrv --start cron

If none of this fixes the problem, then report your problem
to cygwin@cygwin.com.  Please include a copy of your crontab,
('crontab -l') and the output of 'cygcheck -srv > cygcheck.txt'.

Please include the generated files 'cygcheck.txt' *as an attachment*,
and NOT in the body of the mail message.

$ cygrunsrv --stop cron

$ cygrunsrv --remove cron

$ cygrunsrv --install cron -p /usr/sbin/cron -a -D

$ cygrunsrv --start cron
cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: StartService:  Win32 error 5:
Access is denied.

$ crontab -l
