Jeff,

These look like awesome scripts.  Thanks so much for sharing!  (Hrm, is 
BackupPC headed towards a plugin extension set?)  However, I’ve had little 
exposure to CygWin.  In the olden days, we’d grab the CygWin for BackupPC and 
roll.  However, your notes seem to indicate just installing a base CygWin.  
Yet, that doesn’t look like it includes SSH or Rsync.  Or is the base 
installing only the client side, and not installing the server side SSH and 
Rsync?  Sorry, my brain contorted in knots in the middle of this one and I’m 
struggling to find the ends to untie it.

Thanks,

Greg Harris

Hi there,

thanks for the hack. It runs very well here, I always had the problem
that backing up Windows computers in our network was quite a problem.

Just posting an updated version of my perl hacks to the
/etc/backuppc/pc/windowshost.pl file that will allow you to easily and
reliably create (and later remove) VSS shadow copies on any Windows host
so that all files (including locked ones) can be backed up.
