Cygwin
rsync version 2.6.2 protocol version 28
(Cygwin installer said 2.6.2-3)
The command was:
rsync -rRtvz \
--delete \
--password-file /home/Judi/.rsync.secrets \
/C/data \

This issue is similar to the one I reported here in bug 1508.
Weirdly this password worked fine for a few months then someone his the "install
service pack 2" on WinXP and then it stopped. But the odd thing is changing the
password fixed the issue; and yes I have retried the old password and the
operations breaks again.
Please let me know if this is something I should submit to the Cygwin folk.
WORKAROUND: use simple passwords?
