Hi, I'm trying to use rsync to backup a linux filesystem to a windows server. I followed the hints that I found at http://www.tiarnan.phlegethon.org/rsyncntdoc.html to run rsync on windows, and it works quite well.
The only problem I found is that windows is not able to backup linux special files (/dev/*). I don't know if the problem is in the way rsync has been compiled, or simply in the fact that mknod.exe is missing. What do you think about that? Has anyone tried it before? I could not find references on the mailing list archive or on the web. Thank you -- Pier Paolo Glave __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!
