I don't think you can do that Ernie - I would get rid of that file. If you just want the summary you can try losing the "--progress" switch on the rsync command line. I know it's tedious, but wade though `man rsync`. It's worth the effort; I think it's an excellent tool, great for saving bandwidth, invented (I think) by the same clever Aussie who does Samba. As far as the log is concerned, I just put: MAILTO=peter at the top of the cron job.
