I use rsync to backup from Windows Vista/Cygwin to a Freenas/freeBSD server.
The "Documents" folder has several sub-folders
Folder1
Folder2
My Images
Folder3
All these folders have subfolders and files.
A command "rsync /cygdrive/C/Documents xxx@freenas:backupPath" copies all
Folders1 to 3 but not the "My Images" folder. I think it is because the "My
Images" folder is not an ordinary directory. It is a Windows "link".
The question is : is it possible in Cygwin to specify the path so that all
subfolders of "My Images" are synced ? Or the only solution is to get rid of
this special directory and use another folder, i.e. "Images_xyz" ?
:) Gabier
