Hi folks,

I was having problems getting rsyncd to run as a service. I discovered that the problem was the file permissions on rsyncd.conf, the clue was from Event Viewer -> Application Log then look at the various events that got generated for rsyncd, for example one of the errors said, "rsync: unable to open configuration file..."

Since I have Cygwin installed, I just went to that directory within Cygwin and "chmod ugo+r rsyncd.conf" and that fixed the problems. Permissions on other, related files may need to be modified as well, use the Application Log as a guide.

Jonathan
