 I used to do that, the windows rsync client (runs on the top of
 cygwin) worked well for me.
 You can use this package:
 http://www.aboutmyip.com/AboutMyXApp/DeltaCopy.jsp
 which provides cygwin rsync plus GUI.
 The only issue I had is with files with non-latin characters in their
 names, in my case, Hebrew.
 Once I downloaded the Cygwin UTF-8 dll, which can be found here:
 http://www.okisoft.co.jp/esc/utf8-cygwin/
 everything seemed to work.

I've done this as well without problem. Look for cwrsync if you don't want 
to bother installing Cygwin yourself. It comes with the rsync tools and 
ssh all ready to go.

Backup Winserver

2008-11-04 Thread Graham Bentley

Hi All,

Is there anyone using Rsync on windows to backup to 
a Linux or FreeBSD server?


Are the Windows Rsync implementations reliable?

Or, how are people doing this? [ftp etc?]

Thanks!
