No rights are necessary. I tried it all :-( The only way to run rsync with pre/post xfer in Vista is: - install sshd - run rsyncd as a windows service under an own user - ssh from another machine into this user. If you want you can log out immediatly. But an "ssh ... whoami" isn't enough. - connect to the rsyncd an run your backup. I do not understand why this ssh login is necessary or where my mistake. 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/
