No but after reading this I think I do need to know it.  :)

So, if I am reading this right, the rsyndeam.cmd runs on the OS/2 box,
allowing the BSD script ./backup_mbox01 to run on the BSD box.  The BSD
script connects remotely to the OS/2 box.

My German translation of the comments is probably not great, so this
question may be answered, but I am thinking that the scripts run
independently and the OS/2 cmd script opens the channel for the connection
but does not cause the BSD script to run?

I assume the BSD script runs an rsync client?

This is great!  :)
