I used rsync+ssh for backup remote windows server. The problem that I would like to know if you have new version or a path avaible to solve this problem about the max length 260 characters. For this error :building file list ... skipping overly long name: I found since the rsync version 2.6.7 you have increase the buffer size for solve some problems with cygwin. Also I have installed the last version of cynwin and replace for the last version of cwrsync 2.6.9 and I have the same problem again. Cut for rsync 2.6.7 news - Some buffer sizes were expanded a bit, particularly on systems where MAXPATHLEN is overly small (e.g. cygwin). I found your answer on malling list : http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-04/msg00395.html So did you have a solution for that Regards, * * -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
