it's ok even if I have to host a rsync server on windows machine and set it up to backup the open files preliminarily,, The most important thing for me is *****backing up open files*****.

what effect does SAMBA have on RSYNC if do mount and rsync the windows folder.

This brings up one more problem i have right now. When i try to mount the windows folder (as root user )and rsync it to local folder i have no problems the rsync works fine.

But when i try to mount windows folder as USER APACHE (we built a webpage for all this process) and try to rsync it to a local folder, the rsync doesn’t work properly.

 

thank you all for your help
