I use rsync to backup from Windows Vista/Cygwin to a Freenas/freeBSD server. The "Documents" folder has several sub-folders Folder1 Folder2 My Images Folder3 All these folders have subfolders and files. A command "rsync /cygdrive/C/Documents xxx@freenas:backupPath" copies all Folders1 to 3 but not the "My Images" folder. I think it is because the "My Images" folder is not an ordinary directory. It is a Windows "link". The question is : is it possible in Cygwin to specify the path so that all subfolders of "My Images" are synced ? Or the only solution is to get rid of this special directory and use another folder, i.e. "Images_xyz" ?
