Sorry Jason,
I don't know. How do I know if cron is switching user correctly? How
can I reconfigure /etc/passwd and /etc/group files so cron will work
correctly? Will mkgroup and mkpass correct this problem?

Sorry, I don't know. Is your /etc/passwd and /etc/group files set up
correctly? Is cron really switching users correctly?
BTW, I get the following:
$ id
uid=19695(jt) gid=10513(Domain Users)
groups=544(Administrators),545(Users),10513(Domain Users)
$ cat /tmp/id.txt
uid=19695(jt) gid=10513(Domain Users)
groups=544(Administrators),545(Users),10513(Domain Users)
Sounds like your Cygwin setup is not correct.
Jason
