Can anyone recommend a good win32 GUI rsync client? -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
Hi Ansar - I'm using cwRsync, though only the server part. Does the job, however, I noticed sometimes it doesn't clear it's pid file and then it won't start next time you boot up. Not sure whether this is a Windows "feature" or cwRsync problem. Anyway, you can always remove the pid file setting in rsyncd.conf.

I have rsync set up on my servers but when I try to start the service i get the
message that it started and then stopped.
Any one know what the problem is?

I downloaded the client and it wont allow you to enter something that does not have the "rsync.net" as a substring. -----Original Message----- From: lewis butler [mailto:lbutler+rsync@covisp.net] Sent: Friday, December 05, 2008 9:57 AM To: rsync@lists.samba.org; Ansar Mohammed Subject: Re: Win32 GUI Client On 4-Dec-2008, at 18:12, Ansar Mohammed wrote:> Tried that but its hardcoded to use the rsync.net servers.Reading the page linked, it appears that the remote server is a SETTING:> URL should be the address of your rsync.net storage system - this > was indicated in your original welcome email.

Have a look at http://www.itefix.no/i2/node/11726 for a cwrsync forum contribution: RsyncXP - simple Rsync GUI front-end for Windows XP Tev> -----Original Message----- > From: rsync-bounces+tevfik=itefix.no@lists.samba.org > [mailto:rsync-bounces+tevfik=itefix.no@lists.samba.org] On > Behalf Of lewis butler > Sent: 5. desember 2008 15:57 > To: rsync@lists.samba.org; Ansar Mohammed > Subject: Re: Win32 GUI Client > > On 4-Dec-2008, at 18:12, Ansar Mohammed wrote: > > Tried that but its hardcoded to use the rsync.net servers. > > > Reading the page linked, it appears that the remote server is > a SETTING: > > > URL should be the address of your rsync.net storage system > - this was > > indicated in your original welcome email.

I may try that sometime in the next few weeks... -- Best regards, Charles
