YOU NEED TO DO THE FOLLOWING FIRST:

1)	install an SSH client in windows.

	http://sourceforge.net/projects/sshwindows/files/OpenSSH%20for%20Windows%20-%20Release/3.8p1-1%2020040709%20Build/
	or
	https://www.itefix.no/i2/content/cwrsync-free-edition

	I personally use cwrsync (free version) because it is always handy to be able
	to rsync a file also.

2)	make sure whatever "bin" directory ssh.exe is in gets into your PATH environment variable

3)	set up ssh connections without a password using ssh-keygen

	if you type "ssh root@<server>" and it asks for a password, you did not do this step correctly.

4)	edit the "zfswinadmin.ini" file to enter

	tempfile=    I usually set this to C:\temp\zfs.log  but make sure the directory exists
	
	ssh_user=    this should be root unless you have special circumstances

	notify1=     your email address, if you want failure alerts

        server1=     IP address of each server you want monitored

	source1=               server replicating FROM
	source_filesystem1=    zfs filesystem replicating FROM

	target1=               server replicating TO
	target_filesystem1=    zfs filesystem replicating TO

5)      if you are going to use replication, copy "replicate_zfs_filesystem.sh" to your /root folder on the SOURCE server.

	make sure the SOURCE server can ssh to the TARGET without prompting for a password (as root)

	make sure the script works from command line on SOURCE machine:

	~/replicate_zfs_filesystem.sh XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX zpool_source/myfs XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX zpool_target/myfs

	without any errors
