Are you sure it actually copied the files or did it just try changing permissions and such? Maybe run it again and look at the actual number of bytes transferred rather than the number of files it seemed to transfer. How about choosing options explicitly, i.e. don't use -a, so don't set permissions on files etc. I assume you're mounting M$ W***ws drive on linux machines so permissions are duff anyway. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
