Accessing files under rsync-process

[L.-I. Porges]

Hello,

I've installed Cygwin on a WindowsNT-machine and it works fine.
Now I want to transfer files using rsync to a Linux-machine. This
also works quite well. There's only one problem, that I am not
able to access some of the files and directories using rsync.

A 'ls -l' shows me in such cases, that the rights are not set (in
Unix-style) - but I am able to do a 'cd <directory name>' and
a 'cat <file name>'. If such cd- and cat-commands are working
well, why I am not able to access this files and directories using
rsync and how can I access them using rsync?

I am using Cygwin under the Administrator account and there
are two entries in the passwd file for the Administrator with
(in my opinion) right SIDs.

Administrator:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:500:513:Administrator,U-WEBCAT1\Administrator,S-1-5-21-15...-18..-91...-50:/home/Administrator:/bin/bash
Administrator:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:10500:10513:Administrator,U-WEBCAT1\Administrator,S-1-5-21-15...-18..-91...-50:/cygdrive/c:/bin/bash

(The dots in the two lines above are staying for some more numbers.)

Could you give me please a hint, how I can access the directories
and files using the rsync command?

I thank you a lot in advance!!!!!

Bye
L.-I. Porges

BTW: The CYGWIN variable is set to ntsec.
