rsync -avz D:/test me@my.server.com:/test
I am using cwrsync on a windows7 box rsyncing to a linux box.
Everything works fine when i am going from a relative path on drive C.. but i need to rsync from another hdd in my windows box, drive d.
When i run the above line rsync moans that "the source and destination cannot both be remote
".
How can i get rsync to look at a directory on drive d?
The same line from a folder in drive c works fine:
rsync -avz /test me@my.server.com:/test
On a mac the 2nd hdd is mounted through Volumes and the rsync can access the files through that, is there anything similar in windows?

If you are using a cygwin version of rsync then you probably should be able to use the
/cygdrive/folder. A drive with the letter D would be seen in cygwin as/cygdrive/d.
