Hey folks :) Due to circumstances beyond my control, I've got a user account on a remote PC which contains a space in the username, i.e. "Test Computer". I've set up Cygwin and cron, and am having problems with the system crontab. I can't figure out how to put the username in there, I've tried it as is, with \ escaping the space, enclosing in double quotes. The jobs just don't get executed. There is no error message in cronevents. The jobs are implementation of cron.hourly, cron.daily etc. - I really don't want to put them in user's crontab which would contain more personal stuff.
Does cron support spaces in username in the system crontab? If so, how to escape them? --Gene -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
