The "extra" stuff is apparently just to be more readable in RsyncArgs. These options look fine. What version of rsync are you running? I don't think it should matter as long as its a recent version ....
to me, this sounds like a filesystem issue. no matter what you do to make
the transfer more efficient, if you are getting an error at the same place i
the transfer and it lines up with a specific gigabyte size such as 2gb or
4gb, then it really sounds like a filesystem issue. either that or some
messed up TCP/IP configuration.
I cant remember the specifics on your setup, but is this issue true on all
the windows machines you try to download to or just a specific one?
can you download a file from the internet of that size? try maybe the
centos5 install dvd, see if you get the same error. also, maybe try a
download manager like 'free download manager' and see if it can handle the
transfer without the error.
I have tested it on my side with backuppc3.0 and windows xp pro, xp home,
vista business, ubuntu7.10 desktop and all worked without error.
