I have downloaded cygwin today.
Doing rsync from Windows 2000 (running cygwin) to NetBSD Unix box with
the following:
rsync -av "test.txt" root@myunixServer:/sd0/rsync
I got the following error:
-------------------------------------
Runs commands on remote hosts running the RSH service.
RSH host [-l username] [-n] command
host Specifies the remote host on which to run command.
-l username Specifies the user name to use on the remote host. If
omitted, the logged on user name is used.
-n Redirects the input of RSH to NULL.
command Specifies the command to run.
rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at
/tmp/rsync-2.5.6/i
o.c(177)
-------------------------------------
The rshd is running on NetBSD, .rhosts is setup and I tried "rsh" standalone
and run fine. Looked like the rsh usage is
'RSH host [-l username] [-n] command'
but the "rsh" in rsync expected a different format.
On Unix boxes, it is:
rsh [-nd] [-l login] [login@]host [command]
What's wrong with this picture?
BTW, when specified "ssh" as the shell, rsync worked fine.

$ rsync --version
