Subject: Re: rsyc log weirdness
index.php is a symlink:
[root@server2 etc]# ls -l /var/www/html/ssl/php/index.php
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Jun 7 16:27 /var/www/html/ssl/php/index.php
-> login.php


The command used to sync:
/usr/bin/rsync -vrtpogz --password-file=/root/rsync.password --delete
var/www/ root@${NODE}::www/

${NODE} is previously defined as the other server's name.
