no such file or directory - but hey, the files are there!

Ouch ouch, I didn't want to send the username to the list, but changed 
it only in the first listing... Sorry for confusion.

So, once again, username and servername changed, the rest stays:


1. This one copies fine:

$ rsync  --partial --dry-run -a -v --progress 
rsync://username@server/uDrive/backup /tmp
Password:
receiving file list ...
30 files to consider
backup/
backup/acls-c.bat.txt
backup/acls-e.bat.txt
backup/acls-f.bat.txt
backup/acls-g.bat.txt
backup/run-backup.bat
backup/xsrv-2006-11-11.bkf
backup/fileacl/
backup/fileacl/fileacl.exe
backup/fileacl/run-fileacl.bat
backup/shadow/
backup/shadow/CreateShadow.cmd
backup/shadow/RMTSHARE.EXE
backup/shadow/makeshadow.cmd
backup/shadow/vshadow.exe


2. This one fails - I only added one subdirectory ("fileacl", it exists 
above and was copied fine):

$ rsync  --partial --dry-run -a -v --progress 
rsync://username@server/uDrive/backup/fileacl /tmp
Password:
receiving file list ...
rsync: pop_dir "/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/u:" (in uDrive) failed: No 
such file or directory (2)
rsync error: errors selecting input/output files, dirs (code 3) at 
flist.c(1281) [sender=2.6.9]
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (445 bytes received so far) [receiver]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(453) 
[receiver=2.6.9]


Note that it should be successful, as the directory exists above in the 
example 1, and did copy fine?


The config for the module name looks like below on the rsyncd server:

[uDrive]
	path = u:
	auth users = username
	secrets file = C:/rsyncd/rsyncd.secrets
	hosts allow = 1.1.1.1
	strict mode = false
	read only = true
	list = false
