Hello, I'm trying to use rsync over SSH without the "-e ssh" option. The idea is to make rsync --daemon bind on the loopback on the Cygwin box and to connect to this box with a tunnel: ssh -L 873:localhost:873 user AT cygwin_box On the Cygwin Box, the file /etc/rsync.conf contains: [d_drive] read only = yes path = /cygdrive/d/ hosts allow = 127.0.0.1 To backup the Cygwin box, this simple command should do the trick: rsync -avz localhost::d_drive /path This is a simple use of a SSH tunnel. Unfortunately, on the cygwin box, rsync sees the loopback connection (from the SSH tunnel) from its own public IP address instead of "127.0.0.1". So the /etc/rsync.conf should be: [d_drive] read only = yes path = /cygdrive/d/ hosts allow = <real_IP_address_instead_of_loopback_address> It works but I'd like to backup a lot of Cygwin boxes and having to fill the "hosts allow" line with a non-generic static value is quite disturbing. How can I make rsync seeing local/tunnel connections as "127.0.0.1"?
