The following line says the problem still remains with BackupPC, though. I'm not sure if plain rsync 3.0/ssh works over cygwin, but it definitely doesn't with BackupPC, which uses the File::RsyncP perl module which uses the older protocol 28 instead of 30. Maybe someone who knows more about it could tell us if it was fixed, and I can update the guide. > If I rebuild the box using Debian 5, should BackupPC work for Windows/ > Cygwin via ssh/ rsync? No, see above.
