cwrsync couldn't find ssh in /usr/local/bin, but no problem finding /usr/bin/ssh:
c:\cwrsync\bin\rsync -e /usr/bin/ssh -av ..... This works fine...
This produce error:
c:\cwrsync\bin\rsync -e /usr/local/bin/ssh -av .....
rsync: Failed to exec /usr/local/bin/ssh: No such file or directory (2)
On remote host I have ssh from Sun in /usr/bin/:
> ls -la /usr/bin/ssh
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 405248 Sep 17 17:53 /usr/bin/ssh
> /usr/bin/ssh -V
Sun_SSH_2.2, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x100010af
and OpenSSH in /usr/local/bin/
> ls -la /usr/local/bin/ssh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root sys 762580 Oct 10 13:22 /usr/local/bin/ssh
>> /usr/local/bin/ssh -V
OpenSSH_6.6p1-hpn14v5, OpenSSL 1.0.1j 15 Oct 2014
I did this test:
# mv /usr/bin/ssh /usr/bin/ssh.sun
# cp -p /usr/local/bin/ssh /usr/bin/
Test with OpenSSH in /usr/bin was O.K.:
c:\cwrsync\bin\rsync -e /usr/bin/ssh -av
What is the reason that ssh in /usr/local/bin couldn't be found?
Best reagrds,

This behaviour is by default - Cygwin mounts /usr/bin automatically to the bin directory available. However, the same doesn't happen with /usr/local....
Default Cygwin mount table may look like:
C:/cygwin/bin on /usr/bin type ntfs (binary,auto)
C:/cygwin/lib on /usr/lib type ntfs (binary,auto)
C:/cygwin on / type ntfs (binary,auto)
