This takes ownership away from the administrators group, thus disallowing inherited permissions.
I bet there's some way to achieve the effect you want even without the administrators group owning the files. How exactly are the inherited permissions being "disallowed"? Do they apply to "CREATOR OWNER"? If so, just change them to apply to Administrators. Is rsync clearing the flag that causes files to inherit permissions from their parents, or is it creating entries of its own that override the inherited ones? If so, I suspect that setting CYGWIN=nontsec on the receiving rsync (if it's remote, pass --rsync-path='CYGWIN=nontsec rsync' to the local rsync) may stop both of these behaviors, even if it does not fix the file ownership. The page http://www.itefix.no/phpws/index.php?module=faq&FAQ_op=view&FAQ_id=12 supports my suspicion.
