Win2003 server and cron/sshd as services (1.5.19)

Sat May 6 14:03:00 GMT 2006

Indeed I did run it. Cron_diagnose complained about permissions that I 
fixed by chowning the files/directories to the Administrators group. 
But those changes did not change cron's behaivor.
 I did just test by running cron from the command line (not as a 
service), and it appears to work fine. I suspect, that it can only exec 
commands under my uid, since my account does not have things like 
SeCreateTokenPrivilege, etc.
 I would like to "su" to my cron_server (or sshd_server) uid to test 
out running the daemons without cygrunsrv, but I don't know how to 
switch users in cygwin with out ssh'ing to localhost. Login does not 
seem to work (giving me the message about the changes in ntsec) even 
after I added these rights to my user account:
SeServiceLogonRight
SeIncreaseQuotaPrivilege
SeCreateTokenPrivilege
SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege
 One last thing. I fired up apache under my userid, and it sucessfully 
bound to port 80, (in my mind at least) debunking the fire wall theory. 
Any debugging tips would be greatly appreciated.
 Thanks
 Mike
