It shouldn't be since the directories have different groups and
different permissions. Truth is I don't pay much attention to it since
I do ACL on everything. I have changed the permissions on both
directories to match but I need them to be rwxrwx--- or else I have
problems with my windows users writing to the samba shares. I will run
the experiment and see what happens.
Thanks for the suggestion :)

Subject: Re: Weird behavior with rsync and permission creep
Is it setting the permissions on the target to match the permissions on
the source dir?
