Hey all,
First off, I'm new to cygwin, rsync, and actually even ssh. I've used ssh
clients many times, but server side I'm a bit of a noob. Anyway, here's my
problem...
I set up a brand spankin new Windows XP box with only two apps installed:
copSSH and rsync. I need to tie down all security as tight as possible. From
what I've seen/read, it seems to me the only port I need open on this server is
22 (for SSH). But for the sake of testing I've also opened 873.
I can connect directly to my rsync server (bypassing ssh) via the following
command:
rsync *.* [EMAIL PROTECTED]::module
Works like a charm. However, when I try what I believe to be the correct SSH
syntax:
rsync -av --rsh="ssh -l sshuser" *.* [EMAIL PROTECTED]::module
I get the following error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password: (enter it correctly)
rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer (104)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(584)
I've also tried just SSH'ing into the server and it works great. I can run
rsync as well so I'm not encountering any path issues. Lastly, I've checked the
rsync server log file and don't notice any entries when I try and execute the
ssh-esque command above.
Am I missing some sort of syntax? Can anyone shed some light?
Thanks,
Mike
