Re: [BackupPC-users] cygwin-rsyncd outdated No recent version ?

[Ray F. <ray...@av...>]

Here at $WORK we created a "Nullsoft Scriptable Install System" (
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page) package that creates an install
package for the Cygwin Rsync(d) 3.0.9.

We created the package by copying just the rsync, and cygrunsrv.exe (and
needed DLLs) from a full Cygwin.  The installer puts rsync in C:\rsync, and
installs and starts the rsyncd service.

We include in the package our site specific rsyncd.conf and rsyncd.secrets
and additional files in the package that submit a call to our ticketing
system to alert us that a new machine is ready to be added to BackupPC.

Because of our customization, I can't just release our package into the
wild.   If there's enough interest, I can "sanitize" our build tree and I
can share our NSIS config so others can easily customize and build their
own rsyncd installers.
