rsync - Sep 2008 - Transfer between windows and linux going wrong

Hi,
I am running rsync 2.6.9-2etch2 protocol version 29 in a Debian machine.
There is a Windows machine that I want to get the files from debian. For
that I'm using rsync for windows version 3.0.4 protocol version 30

"C:\Program Files\cwRsync\bin\rsync.exe" -Cavz root@10.1.100.45:/root/
rsync: Failed to exec ssh: No such file or directory (2)
rsync error: error in IPC code (code 14) at pipe.c(84) [receiver=3.0.4]
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [receiver]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(632)
[receiver=3.0.4]

The problem is the protocol version difference right? If it is, how can i
install a newer version of rsync in a Debian Etch instalation?

Regards,

No, the problem is that you don't have any "ssh" program on your
windows
system, and you've instructed rsync to do the transfer over ssh (no -e
option thus default ssh, and a single colon thus not a connection to an
rsync daemon).

If you configure the Debian system to run rsync as a daemon (create an
appropriate /etc/rsyncd.conf file, see /usr/share/doc/rsync/* and edit
/etc/default/rsync and do /etc/init.d/rsync start), then you should be
able to transfer thusly:

"C:\Program Files\cwRsync\bin\rsync.exe" -Cavz
10.1.100.45::your_module_name_here/
