Re: Re: Cygwin 1.7 on win 2008 wierd behaviour with .sys files

I have a directory to rsync with a.sys.exe and a.sys in the same fodler. rsync says it copied the file file a.sys to dest. But only a.sys.exe appears on the other side. I agree that foo and foo.exe should be treated the same way. But is there a merit in using this assumption in context of cp or rsy
