Hi 

Im running rsync server on a windows machine compiled on a cygwin. Suppose that i do a rsync from a linux machine to this windows machine, im able to successfully transfer all the files even if they are hidden. Now that im able to get the attribute of a file(whether its hidden or not) using attrib.exe, is there a way to transfer such hidden files from windows machine to linux machine with a prepended "."? I couldn't figure out exactly which part of the code is sending the file name to receiver. Is there a way to just rename the file on the client with a prepended "." without affecting the source and the transfer given the condition?

Thanks in advance
Rajesh
