Hi.
I am trying to backup my files on my server with rsync.
So I use ssh / rsync under Linux at the Server and Cygwin ssh / rsync under Windows NT 5.2.
ck at mymachine /cygdrive/c/backup
$ rsync -essh -r root at some.host:/root
...
-rw-r--r--     6108315 2003/02/20  root/webmin-1.070.tar.gz
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (292837 bytes read so far)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at /tmp/rsync-2.5.6/io.c(165)
