thanks for the tip, but it works some of the time - it's only the
occasional (1 out of 10?) times that it locks up, so I'm assuming it's
not a password problem.
The rsync is all coming from one machine, so I don't know why it's only
failing some of the time - I would guess if it's a password problem, it
would fail all the time!
thanks,
