I'm not familiar with netatalk, but along a similar line, Mac OS X stores resource forks and metadata differently on HFS+ and single-fork volumes (such as UFS or NFS). If you copy a file from an HFS+ volume over to a single-fork volume using the Finder it'll split the pieces apart and save the

instead of "*", which may not match anything, and thus name something that doesn't exist, try using ".", which is the current directory. This isn't dos, and * has no special meaning to rsync. it is, rather, globbed by your shell, being replaced by whatever it matches, or returned as a litera
