Talk:Rsyncd setup on a windows computer for use with Affa backup

When I install cygwin, openssh, rsync and vim as described in this article, rsync is installed in /bin, not in /usr/bin.

Thus, the command I needed to run to create the rsync service was:

cygrunsrv --install "rsyncd" --path /bin/rsync --args "--daemon --no-detach" \
--desc "Starts a rsync daemon for accepting incoming rsync connections" \
--disp "Rsync Daemon" --type auto

instead of:

cygrunsrv --install "rsyncd" --path /usr/bin/rsync --args "--daemon --no-detach" \
--desc "Starts a rsync daemon for accepting incoming rsync connections" \
--disp "Rsync Daemon" --type auto
