I am trying to setup a windows 2000 server with rsync and cygwin. I think I almost have it working except that when the file copy is finished my files are nowhere to be found on the windows server. I am not getting any error messages. I am connecting from a win98 machine on the same network. Any ideas on how I can get this working or get more info to debug. Thanks.
Hi, Have a look at my website http://itefix.no/cwrsync I suppose , you have problems with permissions and ownerships. Make sure that your windows 2000 account OWNS directories you try to sync and run rsync with env.variable CYGWIN=nontsec.

It was a permission problem. Thanks.
