rsync - Apr 2008 - rsync copying over existing files

Hi again all..

When using rsync 3.0 to sync files between 2 local directories, it works as
i expect it, but when the destination folder is a mounted smb share, it
always copies over the files even though they already exist on the
destination.

Any ideas on why this is happening? even using the same options, but with a
different destination path.

I have tried using -vvv, but it doesn't make much sense to me..

Below is the logs:

See "rsync recopies the same files", with the answer about
--modify-window=1.

..wayne..

ahh..

going from OS X, to a linux box with a samba share, it reports on most of
the files that the permissions/owner/group is different.. even with the -a
option.

And to think i read the faq a few times looking for details on why the rsync
process was dropping out, but i must have skimmed over that one.

thanks!
