hello,

I have tried to use  "pre-xfer exec"  with rsyncd / cygwin

I have created a special module to restore in a unique folder  ( 
d:/BackupPC )

****************************

$ cat /etc/rsyncd.conf
....

[RESTORE]
path = /cygdrive/d/BackupPC
auth users = rbackuppc
secrets file = /etc/rsyncd.secrets
read only = false
write only = false
pre-xfer exec = /bin/pre-exec.sh
post-xfer exec = /bin/post-exec.sh

****************************

I have respected the recipe described in  
"http://www.itefix.no/i2/node/11306";

****************************

in "/bin/pre-exec.sh" :

# Shell script for the pre-exec operaions
cmd /c "c:\cygwin\bin\pre-exec.cmd"
exit 0

in "/bin/pre-exec.cmd" :

@ECHO OFF
D:
CD BackupPC
DEL /F /S /Q *

****************************

I start the restore from CGI interface but it fails :
