Bingo, did the trick :
>From command "compare -aq" :
Local file '/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Intuit/QuickBooks/QBWIN.LOG' has
different contents to store file '/accounts/QBWIN.LOG'.
[blah blah]
[ 1 (of 6) differences probably due to file modifications after the last
upload]
Differences: 6 (0 dirs excluded, 0 files excluded)
Logging off...
Session finished.
It did take a while (maybe 10 minutes on 187mb dataset, I wasnt exactly
counting). But I also run a compare -aq on my linux dataset (5.5gig local
bbackupd and bbstored on XP2100 512mb ram), and it is still going so I am
happy.
I am close to say boxbackup works under CYGWIN_NT_5.0. I shall do some
cleaning up and send you my modified files. Otherwise, do you think it is
worthwhile attempted to run the testsuite ?
cheers
