I can't get --acls to work at all. Do you?
When I use it for a RSYNC between a Windows NTFS hard drive and a NTFS USB
drive, I get the following error message:
----

recv_acl_access: value out of range: ff
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at

rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (9 bytes received so far) [sender]

/rsync-3.0.4/io.c(632) [sender=3.0.4]

Also, using "--permission", or "-owner", or "-group" as kind of alternatives
doesn't have any effect for all my tests.
Are these four parameters usable on Windows with Cygwin & RSYNC ?
How do you use RSYNC on NTFS remote syncs with Windows' access rights?

Hi again,
I also use rsync to sync data between a Windows NTFS formatted drive and a
NTFS formated USB memory stick on the same machine.
Basically this works (highly similar to for example a rsync between Windows
and Unix).
BUT... I never ever get the correct permissions on files and folders on the
destination. I tried --permission, -owner, -group, etc. but it never
works in
a way that the destination is a mirror of the source.
Now with the very newest Cygwin rsync version there's finally a port of the
GNU rsync's --acls parameter. It reads like it would do exactly what
many need, but again I don't get it right.....
How do you get the access rights on the (NTFS) destination to be the
same as the (NTFS) source ones?
