If you are copying from a *nix filesystem to a Windows filesystem (which is implied by your use of mountsmbfs) then the timestamps may not be matching since Windows uses a 2-second granularity. Try using the 'stat' command on a file in the source and destination: stat "/music/Reggae/Damon Marly/01 - Confrontation.mp3" stat "/musicbackup/Damon Marly/01 - Confrontation.mp3" The "Modify" times should be the same, down to the second. If they differ by one second, use --modify-window=1 and that will allow rsync to match the timestamps. (Wayne - the "copies every file" entry in the FAQ should also mention this problem with Windows timestamps. Even though it may not be "every file", it may seem like it...)
