Ok, I've upgraded to the latest cron-3.0.1-6 but am still receiving the same message.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hello, all.
Thanks for the hard work on Cygwin.
I updated to the latest versions on 6/25 and now I cannot edit my crontab. I've looked at the mail list but don't see anything related exactly.
I receive the following messages:
$ crontab -e
crontab: installing new crontab
chown: Invalid argument
crontab: edits left in /tmp/crontab.389
I'd appreciate any help. I'm certain I've missed something. Please copy me on reply's as I am not a member of the list.....
Some documentation follows ......
