You need to mount your Win98 partition, then you can access it like: rsync /source /mnt/Win98partition If you don't want that you need to run rsync on Win98 as server. Look out for cwrsync (rsync with cygwin). But I don't know if or how good that works on Win98. bye Fabi -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
