Hi guys,

I've installed rsync server for windows and can open a cygwin command prompt
and ssh into the box where I want to grab files from.
From the linux box I can run rsync and it'll happily go through the
following, but not transmit files.

rsync --verbose  --progress --stats --compress --recursive --times --perms
--links /home/mbrown/logs/apache/* 10.0.9.52
building file list ...
3 files to consider
rsync[30016] (server receiver) heap statistics:
 arena:          12952   (bytes from sbrk)
rsync[30014] (sender) heap statistics:
 arena:          45720   (bytes from sbrk)
 ordblks:            2   (chunks not in use)
 smblks:             0
 hblks:              0   (chunks from mmap)
 hblkhd:             0   (bytes from mmap)
 usmblks:            0
 fsmblks:            0
 uordblks:       38008   (bytes used)
 fordblks:        7712   (bytes free)
 keepcost:        3592   (bytes in releasable chunk)

Number of files: 3
Number of files transferred: 0
Total file size: 632864 bytes
Total transferred file size: 0 bytes
Literal data: 0 bytes
Matched data: 0 bytes
File list size: 101
Total bytes written: 113
Total bytes read: 20

wrote 113 bytes  read 20 bytes  266.00 bytes/sec
total size is 632864  speedup is 4758.38

How do I get the linux box to send files to the windows one? I need to back
up the entire /home directory and all the subdirectories and files, and I'd
rather not have to do it all in one go over the weekend.

Do I initiate the command from the Linux machine, or the windows one?
If I do it from the windows one I get the following:

The authenticity of host ' 10.0.9.1 (10.0.9.1)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is e0:26:9b:6e:e4:b6:06:fa:da:e4:c5:6f:32:d1:00:2b.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added ' 10.0.9.1' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.

rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [receiver]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(459)
[receive
r=2.6.8]

There is no Administrator account on 10.0.9.1. There is root, but if I put
in [EMAIL PROTECTED] into the command it won't accept the root password. But if
I just try to ssh in, it will.
I'm confused.

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Michael.
