Thank you, both for your advice and your patience! I had assumed that
because the built-in version didn't care about EAs, not handling EAs

Summary: Cannot access files in exposed shadow drive in version
3.0.5
Product: rsync
Version: 3.0.5
Platform: x86
OS/Version: Windows NT
Status: NEW
Severity
New Cygwin release 1.7 (which will be released in a few months) will
contain IPv6 support, but rsync configure doesn't currently detect it.
I'm using the following patch to enable the detection:
--- origsrc/rsync-3.0.4/configure.in2008-09-06 18:32:26.0 +0200
+++ src/rsync-3.0.4/config
The man page says:
--password-file
This option allows you to provide a password in a
file for
accessing an rsync daemon. The file must not be world
readable.
It should contain just the password as a single line.
