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.

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?
