My goal: To set up rsync over SSH, to sync my org-mode GTD files, activated every time my laptop or pc goes idle, as described by Gina Trapani. Network hardware architecture: Windows 7 laptop and desktop, connected directly by cat 5e ethernet cable. Also both connected via wifi to the same router. Network functionality: Windows firewalls currently disabled Windows shared folders works for directory browsing and editing Synctoy worked to sync drives, although it spewed a lot of errors and took a long time and many retries to sync ~250 gb. Did it over the ethernet cable because wifi was too slow.
Are you sure it was over the cable ? A lot of errors means a broken cable or a weak wifi.
Cygwin functionality: ping works. telnet error: connection timed out ssh error: connection timed out ssh connection to localhost - works
It seems a routing table problem, not a cygwin issue. see windows command route /help
Background and guesses: I've read and tried many fixes with no luck, to the best of my limited understanding. I doubt network names are configured correctly; I'm out of my depth there. Pinging works with fixed IP addresses assigned for the ethernet connection. I don't know what I'm doing and would appreciate some guidance. Cheers.
