Hi Allan, I did not use a PID file. Because that my rsync did not have a problem with that. Maybee you did not use a PID file? Because of your hibernation/stand-by tests. Did you know if it is possible to disable hibernation/stand-by during rsync is running? br Matthias -- Don't panic -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
