Hi Manuel, it is unlikely that rsync is causing your trouble as it operates on top of tcp (osi layer 4); broadcasts are special ethernet packets that are transmitted on osi layer 2. I think there might be another problem with your server or with your switch (is it hubbing?). I suggest you talk to your network admin again or repost this mail into a network list.
