This would only work if the machines are local to each other! I mount Windows Server 2003 as follows: mount //[servername]/C$ /winmnts/[servername]/cdrive \ -o credentials=/root/sysaccess /root/sysaccess - contains just two lines: username=[administrative account] password=[administrative account password] Also, you'll need to have created the path "/winmnts/[servername]/cdrive" beforehand (as if you hadn't guessed that already)! >From here, I run the rsync command without the need for the -e option. Of course, if the servers are in geographically different locations, then Kai's link is the way to go!
