Hi, wondering if anyone can help advise.
Using Cygwin rsync on Windows , trying to send to my zfs pool on proxmox box.
apending - n for dry run, works fine
appears to think my /Fourpool/Videos dataset is under /root ??

Bash:
$ rsync -ahvzc -e "ssh" /cygdrive/d/videos root@192.168.100.2:"Fourpool/Videos"
root@192.168.100.2's password:
sending incremental file list
rsync: [Receiver] mkdir "/root/Fourpool/Videos" failed: No such file or directory (2)
rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at main.c(791) [Receiver=3.2.7]
 
think my /Fourpool/Videos dataset is under /root ??
Sure! You are logging in as the user named "root" and your working directory is "/root" for this reason.

Use a fully qualified path, starting with "/" to avoid this confusion: root@192.168.100.2:"/your/path/to/Fourpool/Videos"
