Hi Sorry for the confusion, I do NOT want to use SSH with rsync. I got rsync working properly between dirvish server and Windows server, my only problem left is that I want to configure the config file of the Window server to use rsync only without SSH.
Currently if I run : dirvish --vault win --init It prompts me for SSH root@windows password Regards On Thu, Aug 23, 2012 at 11:44 AM, Dave Howorth <[email protected]>wrote: > Ali Jawad wrote: > > However when I test my vault using dirvish it asks for the SSH user/pwd > "I > > did install ssh on the windows server", all the setup is on a local LAN > and > > I would prefer not having to configure SSH unless absolutely necessary. > How > > can I force dirvish not to use ssh for this server? > > I don't fully understand your message.
