Well, the way I did it was set up a share on the Win box and then smbmount that into the Linux file ssystem somewhere then just handle them as if they are Linux to Linux rsyncs.
This is the cron line: 0 22 * * * rsync -avz /home/notes /home/acauser/administration/data /home/acauser/administration/users /home/acauser/jacques/aircraft /home/acauser/sync_space 1>/tmp/rsync 2>&1 ; cat /tmp/rsync |mail -s "Rsync from $(uname -n)" [EMAIL PROTECTED] The first is a genuine Linux "share", In fact it is Lotus Domino running under Linux on the box on which this cron job runs The second and third are two shares mounted from one Win box as read only The fourth is a read-only share from another Win box The fifth is a read-write Win share on yet another Win box onto which everything gets rsync'd.
