Yes I find cwrsync works pretty well in a Batch script. I call it via a Scheduler task every 20 mins to keep my work IE favourites synced with the my home XP PC. Here is a typical batch file I use in Windows. --------------------------------------------------------------------- @ECHO OFF SET RSYNC_PASSWORD=q$meggh4 SET CYGWIN=nontsec SET CWRSYNCHOME=c:\cwrsync\ cd c:\cwrsync\ c: C:\cwrsync\rsync -za --modify-window=3 -P --delete --recursive /cygdrive/d/favorites/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]::favs/ WAIT 3 EXIT ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Ensure that the CYGWIN dlls are in the c:\cwrsync folder. Ensure you add c:\cwrsync to the default PATH variable. One important note: If you're setting up cwrsync to run as a Service on a Windows machine ensure the .conf file has the line: strict mode = false otherwise rsync passwords will not work in Windows. Tev, you may wish to mention this important issue on your web site and add it to the FAQ - Problems with secrets files? Took me ages to work out why rsync secrets files don't work in Windows. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
