I do the following:
The following line syncs the data
0,15,30,45 6-22 * * * /usr/local/bin/file_sync > /tmp/rsync-error 2>&1
The following runs once a day to delete added files
0 5 * * * /usr/local/bin/file_sync_delete > /tmp/rsync-error 2>&1
The next line monitors the sync
Thanks Brian. :-)

"$rsynccommandline >>$logfile 2>&1"
If you really want it in syslog
"$rsynccommandline 2>&1 |logger $facility.$severity", and make sure you
