Windows – rsync from Putty on windows to the Cent OS server

centosputtyrsyncwindows

I'm a bit new to the command line and UNIX but am finding it hugely useful. Is it possible for me to rsync from putty on my windows 7 machine to my virtual server?

If not what are my other command line options? I just want to update my cms scripts without having to SFTP into each website account with Filezilla. A nice rsync command would suit me better.

Cygwin is a way to run a Linux-like environment on window. Among other things it provides a rsync binary.
