cwRsync or DeltaCopy with FreeNAS

Asked by tech1984 in Backup & Restore Software, CYGWIN

Tags: FreeNAS

I have a FreeNAS server up and running.  I want my workstations to push the data to it.  I have found 2 ports of rsync for Windows: cwRsync and DeltaCopy.  DeltaCopy has a nice interface and I have actually successfully gotten a test sync to work.

My problem is that I can't figure out how to do it over SSH so it is encrypted.  I also need to have this scheduled, which I can do with either one, but I can't have it prompting me for a password.  I am figuring that I need to use the ssh-keygen, but can't really figure it out.

All help appreciated.  The more detail the better.   BTW I have read the article on running DeltaCopy as the server and having the FreeNAS pull the data and this is not what I want.
