To copy to Y:, just change the destination of the command to the desired path beginning with /cygdrive/y . > They use rsync server on windows with a "secrets file" and the following > module definition in rsyncd.conf (on WinXP): > > [sharename] > path = //192.168.100.123/path/sub > read only = false > auth users = bkupuser > transfer logging = yes > > Is that the right way? No, since the NAS has its own rsync and the destination share is available at a local path (/cygdrive/y), there is no need to set up an rsync daemon (server) on the Windows machine (unless I'm misunderstanding your setup).
