server:/path/to/stuff means "fire up ssh or rsh and make me a tunnel to server"
server::module/path/to/stuff means "try to access an rsync daemon on server and access path/to/stuff on module"
/path/to/stuff means "access /path/to/stuff on the local machine"
Hope that helps.

Just installed cwrsync 1.2.1 and I am getting this:
C:\cwrsync>rsync -n -v -r /cygdrive/c/robj/pickmeup speedball3:/cygdrive/d/robj/pickmeup
Failed to exec ssh : No such file or directory
rsync error: error in IPC code (code 14) at pipe.c(81)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(189)
Why in heaven's name is rsync trying to exec ssh when I am asking it to do nothing of the kind?
I've googled and searched the list archives and have found no mention of this particular problem :-( I have removed all other traces of cygwin from this system. At one point I think I did experiment with OpenSSH for Windows on this machine but I can find no remaining trace of that either.
All help appreciated and sorry for the newbie idiocy :-( Cheers Rob
