As I indicated in a previous posting, I text searched the large FAQ for
cron and came up with nothing.

Your reference has the following:

There is a comprehensive Cygwin User's Guide at
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/cygwin-ug-net.html and an API Reference at
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-api/cygwin-api.html.


As mentioned in previous postings, notice the word comprehensive.  The manual
is not so comprehensive if it doesn't describe how to set up services like
cron (especially since cron is such a common Unix/Linux service).

It would have been nice if I had read that.  Dumb thing is that I looked
right at that as well.  It was I that I was mentally focused on finding
references to cron.
