A: Assuming that you want to synchronize directory c:\srcdir on machine WINCLIENT with directory c:\destdir on machine WINSERVER : On WINSERVER : - Install cwRsync Server (without openssh component) - Start RsyncServer service - Use Prep a Dir for Upload wizard for the directory c:\destdir - Add a new module to rsyncd.conf : [wintest] path = /cygdrive/c/destdir read only = false transfer logging = yes on WINCLIENT : - Install cwRsync - Use batch file below to initiate rsync: @ECHO OFF SET CYGWIN=nontsec "c:\Program Files\cwRsync\bin\rsync" -avr /cygdrive/c/srcdir/ WINSERVER::wintest NB! Keep in mind that the recipe above is suitable for operations within a secure network. ----------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------
