Transferring from Windows to Linux with rsync

Question

noob here,

I\'m trying to transfer a file using rsync from windows to linux. I have this code, but I\'m getting an error

rsync -avz -e ssh C:\\users\\fil         


        

Answer 1

If you're using CygWin to rsync from the Windows box, the local file you want is almost certainly:

/cygdrive/c/users/file.txt

rather then:

/c/users/file.txt
