One more thing to check: is the daemon running as a user that has
permission to access the share?  (I'm not familiar with the details of
Cygwin permissions, but that's one reason I thought of why "ls" might
work but an rsync daemon wouldn't.)

What error message do you get in the daemon's log?  (You may need to
specify a "log file" in the configuration if you haven't already.)
