Hey John...

Yep. I've noticed that.. And been trying to figure out ust what the dang
err is trying to tell me... since I only had the initial dir!

However,, Since I tested what Francis asked me to test... I'm now able to
have the rsync working...

And I don't know what the diff is between the cmds..

As far as I can tell, the cmds are the same!

rsync -avz  /home/test/cat/     test@192.168.125.133:/home/test/cat

this works, in that the files of /home/test/cat (dir) get copied over to
the /home/test/cat dir on the remote side..

this is what i've done 100s of times in the past with other systems..
files.. etc..

no clue what my issue was.. which means I can't solve the issue!! which is
in and off itself a pain now!
