Even without testing it, I got the impression the first build wouldn't work on Windows XP. Did you do your own build ? I just did and it works with standard Linux rsync-client and Windows XP rsync-binary. I have some doubts about it working with backuppc, if protocol 28 is the highest it supports. Anyway the Windows XP-binary is: http://www.consolejunky.net/cwrsync-vss/rsync-xp.exe I usually also keep it together with the same cygwin1.dll, unless you already have a complete cygwin installation. http://www.consolejunky.net/cwrsync-vss/cygwin1.dll >> I've tried using the "protocol=28" option in my rsyncd conf file, but it >> says "ignoring unknown parameter". >> >> Did you get it working with backuppc already ? >> No I didn't, or atleast not test it and I didn't know until recently that BackupPC uses it's own implementation of rsync-client. This is kind of still a bit of a development-release, I posted to this mailinglist in the hopes to get some idea of what people need or want (first). It seems some people wanted a Windows XP-binary, so I created one. :-) >> Thank you in advance for any information ;) >> >> Alex > > > +---------------------------------------------------------------------- > |This was sent by alexan...@inforeseau.com via Backup Central. > |Forward SPAM to ab...@backupcentral.com. > +---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a cutting edge operating system for enterprises > looking to deploy the next generation of Solaris that includes the latest > innovations from Sun and the OpenSource community.
