I have two DOS filesystems mounted on Linux as "vfat" which I want to rsync. (They are on flash cards, so that they are also small). rsync gets tricked because the filesystem treats names differing in only case as the same. Thus, when it tries to sync "FOO123" with "foO123", it copies over the "ne

You then have two choices, well, perhaps one; rsh and it's issues to combat or running in deamon mode as root and connecting to the deamon as root. Both seem ugly to me. Of course, if you have enough control of the 'network' and can make sure it's not 'internet' bound and exposed, this can be

OK. I got the rsync CVS code and compiled under Linux. That did the job, but only with --no-whole-file because of the local transfer. I then tried to read-batch... under Windows / Cygwin with the current Cygwin rsync. That didn't work - as expected. After compiling again under cygwin it worked!
