Hi,

Based on the source from Kolosy (http://www.kolosy.com/wordpress/?p=8 ), we 
have continued the journey and successully ported Rsync to C# (protocol 28 ). 
So far, the program has the following features:
1. Lots of features just like Rsync, supporting protocol up to 28.
2. No need for cygwin. However, it's required .NET framework version 3.5
3. Utilise Volume Shadow Copy Service (aka VSS,  on XP machines only) so that 
now it will do the work on shadow copy (configurable parameter on config file) 
and copy even opened files, exchange files, SQL files, etc.
4. Zlib compression supported
5. Running as a windows service (daemon), working fine with BackupPC and rsync 
on unix platform.
6. Can produce rdiff-backup alike signature/delta file.
7. Unicode filename supported.
8. Ultilise nearly maximum network bandwidth. During testing, we are getting 
around 11-12MB/s on 100Mbs network.
9. Many mores...

Many thanks to Kolosy!

Please let us know if anyone interested in having a test on this program.

Thanks.
