The Windows event viewer gives the following information: The description for Event ID 0 from source rsyncd cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer. If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event. The following information was included with the event: rsyncd: PID 5896: `rsyncd' service stopped, exit status: 255 NOTE that I have no trouble starting the rsync daemon manually using the command line: rsync --config=/c/cygwin/etc/rsyncd.conf --daemon --no-detach Any ideas on what might be wrong?
