and fragmentation. Although it looks like my problem was caused by a path problem with 2.5.6 (I need to specify /. instead of / for the source), I'm interested in this memory issue. Is this file list created on the client side or the server side? Trey Nolen -- To unsubscribe or change options

That lack of deletion is fixed in 2.6.0. You can work around the problem by either getting rid of the -R option (you don't need it in that particular command) or by specifying /. instead of / as the source of your copy. That did the trick! Thanks! Trey Nolen -- To unsubscribe

I had sent a message to the list earlier this week detailing an error message I am getting using rsync on Cygwin on Windows 2000. I have now duplicated the problem on another windows 2000 server. I have a third server on which the process works, so I don't really know what is going wrong. All

If we do that, it backs up the cygwin directory (c:\cygwin being the root of the cygwin install) and not the root of c: (i.e. C:\ ). Trey Nolen - Original Message - From: jw schultz [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 6:13 PM Subject: Re: rsync and cygwin

I think that a key part of the answer is to use /cygdrive/c instead of / or \ to identify c:\ in a cygwin environment. But can you do that if you are not running it from the Cygwin prompt? I didn't do that because we were starting it with the scheduler. Will that still work? Trey Nolen
