I already have ssh access (by way of MobaSSH) and passwordless login to my Win-server from the BPC-machine. I'm thinking Deltacopy might help me, as I can't get the regular rsync to work. Rsyncd might be better for my environment. I'll look into this in more detail after the Easter vacations. Thanks for your feedback! -- /Sorin
