I check the System log and found this error-line:
The CYGWIN rsyncd service did not shut down properly after receiving a
preshutdown control.

Given the error above, I will try to install the service without the
-O. Should I replace it with a -o or is that default behavior? The
cygrunsrv --help is a bit confusing to me.

Another thing that I thought of was that maybe the -f of the shutdown
command is affecting the process. I will try to test that. But since
this is a production server, I have to wait for the evening to be able
to reboot that server.
