sshd and rsync?

[Mark Carter]

I'm looking for rsync and sshd (ssh *daemon*, not client) that runs on
native XP (i.e. no cygwin, or other stuff). Any ideas?

The source for both is available, pull it down and compile it yourself.

What's the problem with needing the Cygwin DLL?

Well, seeings as it will be on our server, I was trying to keep as much
software off of it as possible. In the end, I'm thinking that it's
actually probably better just to install cygwin and pull down the binaries.

Some links that might be interesting:

http://sshwindows.sourceforge.net/

I followed the first one a few months ago, worked like a charm.

The only usable non-cygwin sshd servers for windows are commercial packages.

The only bit extra that is needed is the DLL, so you could download the
packages and extract the exes you need and throw them all in a directory
with the Cygwin DLL.

You don't _have_ to do an install, it's just easier to do so, and, with
SSH, I'd do an install so that I could quickly and easily upgrade it
when a security patch needs to be applied.

The setup tool allows you to select only what you want, so the core and
SSH stuff would be all you need.
