I would like to backup a dir in Win XP on a Solaris server via rsync. I installed cygwin but when I type rsync I get 'command not found'. How can I install rsync? And how can I install ssh. I have installed Poderosa as ssh client (a sort of putty).

run your cygwin setup.exe again, and expand the categories to find 'rsync' and 'ssh'.
