Where to download the rsync binaries for Windows but NOT the cwrsync version?
When I go to page http://rsync.samba.org/download.html then there is no download of the windows binaries except the cwRsync version. However there must be such a pure-rsync binary version for Windows because I have already an old, outdated rsync.exe v3.0.4 So is there elsewhere a download site for the newest rsync for windows? Ben

Have a look at: http://it-em.net/cms/front_content.php?idart=43 Somewhere you can click on "Download von rsync.zip" and you will get rsync_3.0.6 I' m not sure if there is a 3.0.7 version for windows? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Where-to-download-the-rsync-binaries-for-Windows-but-NOT-the-cwrsync-version--tp28621600p28621709.html Sent from the Samba - rsync mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Another approach is to install cygwin (a Unix-like setup for Windows, based on libraries that "convert" Unix calls to their Windows equivalent, roughly speaking anyway), and request the rsync package. However, this is rather a bit to do just to get pre-built rsync. On the other hand, if you install gcc, make, etc., with cygwin, you can build things like rsync yourself. Other things you can get with cygwin include ssh, good for encrypting the rsync channel, etc. the site is www.cygwin.com. Cheers -- Eliot Moss

There is no pure Windows binary of rsync as it relies on Posix functionality. However there's no problem using the cygwin version, be it "standalone" in cwrsync or with the full cygwin installation. bye Fabi
