properly  I have setup RSYNC server in SUSE Linux machine ,i want to
make my windows 2000 prof as my rsync client .I tried useing
--password-file option , but that doesn't work for me .I scheduled the
task in windows 2000 prof with the option --password-file but doesn't
work and prompts for password in the specified time
