I have been trying to get a workable backup strategy on my work laptop. per policy i am stuck with a windows XP machine for now. so far all backup solutions have sucked. i was fooling about with cygwin complied rsync. I like rsync. its cool its sexy its lite. however the cygwin compiled version doesn't seem to like local -> local at all well. Just fro a sanity check if possible what would be an example of local -> local rsync parameters? i feel like i am either missing something huge and beating my head against the wrong wall or i jsut have lost a useful portion of my grey matter. -- A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
