I use the following command initially for a Rsync between Windows and Linux
rsync -rvu -e ssh /cygdrive/c//folder [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/public I was asked for [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password. I type the password and the process continue and success. Then I change the command to (without "-e ssh") rsync -rvu /cygdrive/c//folder [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/public I was also asked for [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password. I type the password and the process continue and success. Then I change the command to (without "-e ssh" and "user") rsync -rvu -e ssh /cygdrive/c//folder linux.host.com:/home/public This time I was asked for [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s password because the same user account does not exit on the Linux machine I am unable to log in. I would like to know why attempt one and two's result looks identical? For attempt two without the "-e ssh" how secure is rsync transferring the data? Is it ssh or just plain binary or ASCII transfer?
