Hi

I want to install rsync on windows xp.

I have searched the web, but most of the solutions suggest using cygwin, but is there any other way to do this?

I don't want to install cygwin because it takes lot of space. Moreover, I need to make it communicate with a rsync daemon on Linux, therefore alternatives to rsync on windows won't help.

Thanks
