Hi, As of today, I have all my Windows Servers being backed up via rsync (not rsyncd) and ssh. I can now manage my Linux and Windows backups the same way.
My solution doesn't require dosdev.exe, it uses vshadows ability to map a shadow copy to any directory. BackupPC ssh's into the windows box and runs my bash script 'pre-backuppc.sh', then ssh's in to do the rsync backup, and when done, ssh's in runs post-backuppc.sh. I borrowed some stuff from other peoples scripts (specifically the 'at' command stuff to get permissions to run vshadow.exe), and the rest is really simple. If anyone is interested, I can post the scripts here, and how I setup cygwin 1.7 Gerald ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.
