AW: rsync without syncing file permissions under W2K

[tim.conway at philips.com]

I see.  you're saying that rsync doesn't affect permissions.  I assume you 
have ntea and ntsec in your $CYGWIN, so you can actually see the 
atrributes.  Otherwise, all files will show as -rw-r--r--, unless they 
have an executable extension or begin with an interpreter (#!) line, and 
all directories will show as drwxr-xr-x, no matter what the windows 
permissions are, and you may actually be getting the behaviour you want, 
and not really have a problem.  If that's not the case, make sure you have 
the parent directory set with the permissions you want, and that it is set 
to bequeath those permissions on all new items created under it.
If neither of them is the problem, i'm stumped.

Hi,

Ok, I tried it. It seems to make no difference.
If I use -p resp. -a or if I don't, the permissions
on target files will be set the following manner:

transport: rw (account under which the rsyncd runs)
everyone: r
none: r

It seems to be independently of the source file
permissions as I would expect.
