Hi,

I am having a strange problem running rsync on cygwin in vista. I have been running a script for years that uses an rsync demon to backup local files on a remote server. It was set up to use ssh as transport with a limited command set for security reasons. When I try to run a test script like,

rsync -e "ssh -i mycert -c blowfish" myfiles [EMAIL PROTECTED]::/

It requests the root password instead of just authenticating. I have run ssh -i mycert to make sure that I could log in. I have tested this exact set up on another vista box and it ran without problem. I have run rsync to the remote server using a different logon to test it also without a problem.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
Peter
