rsync in cygwin as service

[Dmitry Melekhov]

Hello!

I want to start rsync on w2k as service.

If I try to start rsync from command line it simply do nothig:

$ rsync --daemon

Administrator@dm-w2ks /usr/bin

$ ps
PID PPID PGID WINPID TTY UID STIME COMMAND
480 1 480 480 con 500 04:15:03 /usr/bin/bash
1428 480 1428 1420 con 500 05:26:46 /usr/bin/ps

Administrator@dm-w2ks /usr/bin


So I'm trying to set it as service:

C:\cygwin\bin>cygrunsrv -I "RSYNC" -d "Rsync" -p /bin/rsync.exe -a "--daemon --n
o-detach"

C:\cygwin\bin>cygrunsrv -S "RSYNC"
cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus: Win32 error 1062:
The service has not been started.

And I see in event log:


The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( RSYNC ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. The following information is part of the event: RSYNC : Win32 Process Id = 0x148 : Cygwin Process Id = 0x148 : starting service `RSYNC' failed: signal 11 raised.

$ rsync --version
rsync version 2.5.5 protocol version 26

Any ideas?

Thank you!
