[BackupPC-users] cygwin, ssh, and rsync

[Trey N. <su...@in...>]

I don't know if this has been mentioned on the list or not, but the new 
Cygwin seems to have fixed the long standing bug that prevents rsync 
from running in server mode over ssh.   Now, we are able to use the 
method "rsync" instead of "rsyncd".  This means that we no longer have 
to maintain persistent SSH tunnels for our backups of Windows 
machines.   The "rsync" method also seems to be faster for us on WANs as 
well.   Just wanted to let everyone know if this hasn't been brought up.
