rsync on Windows 2000? ----- Sorry, me again!

[Stephan Jau]

Hello,

I just posted this a few days back and my email got totally messed up so I 
don't know for sure if there was any reply yet to this. If there was I 
would be glad if someone just could forward that to me.
Thank you in advance,

Stephan






Hello,

I downloaded that win version of rsync and I have a small question:

How can I do one of the following:

1.) Add multiple syncronisation directories for one module
2.) Synchronize all modules
3.) Create 1 module that contains multiple other modules

The reason is I would like to use rsync as backup system for my computer 
and all the custom data is in different locations on the c: drive. E.g. 
there is data on the desktop, there is custom data in 
c:\Programs\Application Name, then I have mysql run on c:\mysql and I would 
like to update this all with one command...

For this I need one of the three approaches that I mentioned before. I'm 
sure RSync can do that but I just don't know how.

Thank you in advance,

Stephan
