Hello. I am a newcomer to rsync so please forgive me if this question is dumb. I'm still learning rsync and I didn't find anything on this topic elsewhere.
Is it possible to run the rsync client on windows with a passworded keypair using Pageant or SSH Accession? When I attempt to run these commands I receive errors. I am trying the following: rsync -e "ssh2 -l myusername -p myport" destserver: Unfortunately, the ssh connection succeeds but the rest of the command does not. It results in the following error: rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(150) rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(151) When I try rsync -e "plink -load myputtysession" destserver: again I am able to create a connection to the ssh server but I get the following error: Using username "myusername". Unable to write to standard output rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(151) Is it possible to connect to rsync using a passworded keypair from windows? If it is not possible, why not? I have rsyncd.conf configured to write to a log but it's not showing anything interesting. Thanks.
