I haven't done it with backuppc, but it should work using ssh only as a port-forwarding tunnel. The only problem is that you don't know when the backup is complete so you might have to leave the ssh connection up most of the time. I have VPN connections (currently CIPE but I'd probably use openvpn now) to all of the places where I need backups so I haven't worked very hard at ssh'ing into windows. But, I've been hoping someone would track down the deadlock since about everything else works with cygwin sshd. -- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
