Xuo,

I ran into this problem recently as well, change your paths from C:/rsyncd/* to 
/cygdrive/c/rsyncd.  Older versions accepted the windows paths, but newer 
versions prefer/insist on the unix-styled path.

Thanks,

Hi,

I have installed rsync with the 
cygwin-rsyncd-3.0.9.0_installer.exe<http://sourceforge.net/projects/backuppc/files/cygwin-rsyncd/3.0.9.0/cygwin-rsyncd-3.0.9.0_installer.exe/download>
 file and modified the rsyncd.secrets and rsyncd.conf files.
The TCP port 873 is open.
When I try to connect to the PC under windows 7, I get :

# rsync -rlt --delete 
[email protected]::Pauline<mailto:[email protected]::Pauline> Trimestriel
Password:
@ERROR: chdir failed
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at main.c(1516) 
[Receiver=3.0.9]

Any idea to solve this problem ? I still do not have run the service as the 
user to be "rsynced" (Pauline) as I don't know its password (I am waiting for 
it to see if this solves the problem).

The rsyncd.conf file is the following.



#

use chroot = false

max connections = 2



log file = c:/rsyncd/rsyncd.log

#pid file = c:/rsyncd/rsyncd.pid

lock file = c:/rsyncd/rsyncd.lock



[Pauline]

    path = c:/Users/pauline

    comment = Compte de Pauline

    strict modes = false

    auth users = xuo backuppc

    secrets file = c:/rsyncd/rsyncd.secrets

    hosts allow = 192.168.0.14

    read only = false

    list = false



Everything was working fine with some previous version of rsync but I wanted to 
use this one as I think it is a newer one.

Regards.

Xuo.

Thanks to Ray Frush, I have released a new version of cygwin-rsyncd, the 
cygwin-based rsync for WinXX-based client machines.  As users have noted, the 
prior version is many years old.

The released files can be found on SF.net at:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/backuppc/files/cygwin-rsyncd/3.0.9.0/

Download and run cygwin-rsyncd-3.0.9.0_installer.exe to install rsyncd on your 
WinXX client for doing BackupPC backups.  The NSIS installer (see 
nsis.sourceforge.net<http://nsis.sourceforge.net>) is used to wrap everything 
into a single .exe.  This is based on the cwRsync installer, adapted by Ray.

Download cygwin-rsyncd-3.0.9.0_source.zip if you want to customize and build 
your own cygwin-rsyncd installer executable (eg: presetting some configuration 
parameters specific to your site).  You will need to download and run NSIS to 
build the installer executable.

This distribution includes rsync 3.0.9, a handful of cygwin 1.7.13 libraries 
and blat (a utility for sending a notification email upon install, using a 
batch script notify.bat, which is commented out by default).  It was built 
using NSIS 3.0a0.

cygwin-rsyncd-3.0.9.0 will work with both BackupPC 3.x and 4.x.  For the new 
BackupPC 4.x, rsync 3.0.x is strongly recommended on the client side (versus 
rsync 2.x), since some optimizations like matching full-file md5 digests only 
work with rsync 3.0.x.  Also, rsync 3.0.x (and BackupPC4 rsync_bpc on the 
server side) both support rsync's incremental file list, which avoids the need 
to store the entire file list in memory (which was a drawback of rsync 2.x for 
big transfers).
