+== update.cmd ==
+This file is optional, but useful for updating your server(s) without going through the entire install process again:
+<file DOS update.cmd>
+.\psexec.exe \\%1 -e -s -c rsyncd_update.cmd
+</file>
+Called like doit.cmd - add a hostname after
+== rsyncd_update.cmd ==
+The meat and potatoes called when the helper above is used:
+<file DOS rsyncd_update.cmd>

+copy /Y \\fileserver\cygwin_install C:\cygwin_install
+copy C:\cygwin_install\rsyncd.conf C:\cygwin64\etc\rsyncd.conf

+net start rsyncd
+del /Q C:\cygwin_install
+rmdir C:\cygwin_install
+</file>
+Yes - this is just a trimmed down version of the other command file.
+==== Final thoughts ====
+I keep a working copy of this directory on a workstation of mine to call it from. Really most of the scripts don't need to be pulled down by the remote host, basically just the cygwin setup file and the rsyncd config files. It's easiest to just keep everything together though. Alternatively, if you can get to a command prompt on the fileserver you can just run doit and/or update from there.
