...uld give me a quick tip or two on getting rsync working as a Win2k service. I'm not real proficient with Win2k, so be gentle. The posts I could find in the archive all seeem to have gotten past this basic problem! I've installed the latest Cygwin, as well as the Cygwin rsync package. cygrunsrv -I "rsyncd" -d "Rsync daemon" -p /usr/bin/rsync.exe -a "--config=/etc/rsyncd.conf --daemon" installs the service; rsyncd.exe --config=/etc/rsyncd.conf --daemon runs it from a bash shell, but I can't seem to start it either using cygrunsrv -S "rsyncd",...

I've spent a long time searching the archives and can't find a solution to my problem- apologies if I've missed it. I've been running rsync absolutely fine for a couple of months on Win2K server using Win2K & WinXP clients with a 'regular' service installation using cygrunsrv (below). It works excellently except that all the files transferred by rsync have the ownership set to SYSTEM. This is the problem. The command I use to install the service is: cygrunsrv -I "rsync" -p /cygdrive/c/cygwin/bin/rsync.exe -a "--config=/cygdrive/c/cygwin/etc/rsyncd.conf -...

For a recent project I needed to run Rsync as a service on Windows NT. The following is a link to the instructions I created to recreate my steps. http://members.home.net/cbollerud2/projects/rsync/NTService.html The "no-fork" patch used here is very similar to the "no-detach" option mentioned in many previous posts. I wish I could take credit for it, but I basically put

I'm sorry to bug you guys but when I tried to install the sshd service it didn't work. I'm running the newest build of Cygwin with Openssh and cygrunsrv on windows 2000.

I'm rsyncing over ssh to unix servers now & am wondering what people who use rsync for their unix boxes do when dealing with win 2000/NT machines? Steve Mallett

I was looking to install Rsync on a win2k server, the document telling you how to do this (available at: http://samba.org/rsync/nt.html) is fairly out of date and has a couple of mistakes. An updated version of the "Rsync on NT" document is now available at: http://www.tiarnan.phlegethon.org/rsyncntdoc.html I think I've gotten rid of the mistakes, but if I've missed anything

What is the status of rsync on Windows 2000? I was looking to install it on my test system, and the download directory has a readme file that says I need the cygnus gnu-win32 library. The link refers me to the index page for cygnus, with no way to get to a download area. A google search shows many mirrors of the download directory. All I have checked are completely blank. I will confess
