rsync - Aug 2006 - rsync in cygwin to my linux nslu2 has permissions problems

(I'm using an ssh connection since I plan to do this over the internet in
the future)

When I try to backup, most of the files are copied.  Trouble is, some aren't
since some directories are copied over and land on my linux box with
permissions of 000.  Because of that, rsync can't copy any other files into
that dir and moves on.

I'd really just like rsync to copy over files all at the same permission
level (say 770) or something.  Is that possible?

Interesting.  Currently rsync ensures that directories are
user-writable while it is putting files in them; I guess rsync should
ensure that they are user-readable and user-executable too.

The --chmod option added in rsync 2.6.7 will do that.  Specify
--chmod=ug=rwX,o= to give files 770 or 660 permissions as appropriate.
