I have updated the version of cron on cygwin.com to 3.0.1-15.
Thanks to Pierre Humblet for the following patch:
Crontab now changes group membership of the crontab files to be
ADMINISTRATORS, to allow access from any privileged process.
Modify cron_diagnose to:
- check the new crontab file group setting.
- verify access of /var/run, /usr/sbin/cron.exe and /usr/sbin/sendmail
by Administrators (instead of SYSTEM) and the local user.
- get the system mounts directly from the registry.
To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your
system. Then, run setup and answer all of the questions.
