Hi there, I'm playing arround with rsync under W2K in conjunction with the cygwin environment. What I want is to get rsync copy a folder tree from one W2K machine to another W2K machine through a firewall. I installed the cygwin on both machines and got the rsync running which is using an openssh connection with public key authentication. Everything works fine except for the assignment of file permissions on target machine. I want to copy the files from source to target machine and the file permissions on source shouldn't be copied to target machine. I want the permission from the target files to be inherited from there parent folders that already exists on target and have several permissions set.
Has anyone an idea to accomplish that? I'm close to a give up :-( Heino -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
