Thanks! And I mistyped, it was a ugo+w, which of course makes me a tad nervous. I'll look through those docs and see what I can figure out, I do have ntsec on (CYGWIN=binmode ntsec tty to be exact).
Actually, did something that works. Our rsync user (weblord) had been set to the Administrator (500) uid. That didn't work, nor did setting it to the new sshd_server uid - but setting it to 544 (Administrators) did the trick. Good enough! Havng a UID for a group makes this ol' UNIX boy's head hurt.

You need at least rsync 2.6.7 on the sender for this to work.
