I've given up on the couchdb route, all that happens when trying to
initialize couchdb 1.4.0 is that I'm getting strange error messages,
like e.g. a 404 on /sb/_design/lesync (my base is named "sb" and not
"tzz"), and /var/couchdb/couchdb.log fils up with JSON dumps with error
messages I don't understand.
So I'm trying to go the SSH file sync route, and I'm trying use plink as
the tramp method.
I have done this in .emacs:
(when windows-emacs
(require 'tramp)
(setenv "PATH" (concat "C:\\ProgramFiles\\PuTTY;" (getenv "PATH")))
(setq tramp-default-method "plink"))
and I have done this in .gnus.el:
(setq gnus-sync-backend '("/sb@sync.mydomain.no:sync/gnus")
gnus-sync-global-vars '(gnus-newsrc-last-checked-date)
gnus-sync-newsrc-groups '("nntp" "nnrss")
gnus-sync-newsrc-offsets '(2 3))
I have done
C-x d /sb@sync.mydomain.no:sync RET
and successfully opened the remote directory using plink.
When I do
C-u M-x gnus-sync-save RET
with these settings, nothing happens.
Any idea? Do I have to make the sync file path explicitly use "plink:"?
Or do I need to use an ssh implementation with an executable called
ssh.exe (it doesn't look like there is anything in gnus-sync that cares,
as long as the file can be reached...?)
