My goal:
To set up rsync over SSH, to sync my org-mode GTD files, activated every
time my laptop or pc goes idle, as described by Gina Trapani.
Network hardware architecture:
Windows 7 laptop and desktop, connected directly by cat 5e ethernet cable.
Also both connected via wifi to the same router.
Network functionality:
Windows firewalls currently disabled
Windows shared folders works for directory browsing and editing
Synctoy worked to sync drives, although it spewed a lot of errors and took a
long time and many retries to sync ~250 gb. Did it over the ethernet cable
because wifi was too slow.
Are you sure it was over the cable ?
A lot of errors means a broken cable or a weak wifi.
Cygwin functionality:
ping works.
telnet error: connection timed out
ssh error: connection timed out
ssh connection to localhost - works
It seems a routing table problem, not a cygwin issue.
see windows command
route /help
Background and guesses:
I've read and tried many fixes with no luck, to the best of my limited
understanding.
I doubt network names are configured correctly; I'm out of my depth there.
Pinging works with fixed IP addresses assigned for the ethernet connection.
I don't know what I'm doing and would appreciate some guidance. Cheers.
This can give you some understanding
