Hi, I'm trying to get rsync over OpenSSH/Cygwin working. I started with a command like this (which fails): $ rsync -v -v -v --recursive --rsh="ssh -i /home/ul081b/mpdm-keys/rsa-mpdm01 mpdm@mpdm-w2k3" MPDM-W2K3::MPDM . opening connection using ssh -i /home/ul081b/mpdm-keys/rsa-mpdm01 mpdm@mpdm-w2k3 MPDM-W2K3 rsync --server --daemon . bash: line 1: MPDM-W2K3: command not found rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at /home/lapo/package/tmp/rsync-2.6.2/io.c(342) _exit_cleanup(code=12, file=/home/lapo/package/tmp/rsync-2.6.2/io.c, line=342): about to call exit(12) The above example should work, if I'm reading the docs correctly. After hours of getting nowhere, I tried this (which worked, but it doesn't look to me that this is the way the docs say to do it) (the only difference is I left out the hostname adjacent to the module): $ rsync -v -v -v --recursive --rsh="ssh -i /home/ul081b/mpdm-keys/rsa-mpdm01 mpdm@mpdm-w2k3" ::MPDM . opening connection using ssh -i /home/ul081b/mpdm-keys/rsa-mpdm01 mpdm@mpdm-w2k3 rsync --server --daemon .

Am I missing something in the docs, is something wrong in the docs or is this a bug? Thanks, Jim Gallagher Cypress, CA -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
