Hi I have a Debian server running ssh which performs the job of a Backup Server. All the GNU/Linux workstations / servers on the network have a bash script that run in the cron to rsync the data folders to the main backup server at night. However, I am having difficulting finding an rsync binary for Windows that can talk to a Debian ssh server to sync the files.
I don't know if it will help, but a modified rsyncd for Cygwin is available at the following link:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=34854&package_id=88133
The rsync tools available on the net appear to talk with a Whitebox/Redhat/Fedora ssh server but I'm having trouble with getting it to work on a Debian ssh server. Any ideas on what I should do to get this to work? Maybe I am using the wrong rsync tool? Is there another rsync tool written for talking to the ssh server of Debian?
Your description seems to point to the Debian ssh server. Have you compared the servers closely and examined any differences?
