Use something like this (this is what I use, it works great..):
(Be aware, these lines are purposely wrapped due to their length..)
#!/bin/bash
rsync -av --delete --exclude "*.src.rpm" \
ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake-devel/cooker \
/mirror/linux/mandrake
rsync -av --delete --exclude "*.src.rpm" \
ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake-crypto/7.1 \
/mirror/linux/mandrake/crypto
rsync -av --delete --exclude "*.src.rpm" \
ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake/updates/7.1/RPMS \
/mirror/linux/mandrake/updates/7.1
rsync -av --delete --exclude "*.src.rpm" \
ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake/updates/7.1/descriptions \
