It was quite simple....

I replicated what I hoped to be the OP's environment in a VM.  In doing so I 
also saw a failure to successfully complete the execution of the rsync command. 
 However, as you saw, there were no error messages to be seen.

So, I simply looked in /var/log/audit/audit.log  And saw this in AVC in the 
log...

type=AVC msg=audit(1414746668.306:107): avc:  denied  { search } for  pid=805 
comm="rsync" name="programmers" dev="dm-0" ino=786655 
scontext=system_u:system_r:rsync_t:s0 
tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_dir_t:s0 tclass=dir permissive=0

Notice that the command in question is "rsync". 

Then using the selinux tools available, determined that "setsebool -P 
rsync_full_access 1" was a fix for the AVC.

I then rebooted and everything now works......for me.

My failure, of course, was to assume that I'd replicated the OPs environment as 
it is now. 

I'm not in the habit of making blind guesses.  I tend to try an replicate 
problems to test fixes.  I did so. 

I'm of the impression that things have changed from the OP's original problem, 
which I will explain later.
