BackupPC 4.4,
cygwin-rsyncd-3.1.2.1

I've been trying for some time to get this working,
been unable to get past a chdir error

in C:\rsyncd\rsyncd.log:
 rsync: chdir //users/ktenney failed
: No such file or directory (2)

Backuppc:

@ERROR: chdir failed

I've tried every spelling of path = ... in rsyncd.conf
C:/Users/ktenney
/c/users/ktenney
...

How do I troubleshoot this?

Thanks,
Kent
