OK, now that I appear to have sorted my permissions out in general, I
still have a problem creating crontab.
I run crontab -e and it fires up emacs (my editor of choice) but can't
create the crontab file becuase the temp version is unreadable.
I also tried to open it using another editor by was denied access.
Any thoughts anyone?
Cygwin Emacs or something else? What does 'ls -l' on the crontab file
show? It might be the right time to review the problem reporting guidelines
and submit a full report:
