Re: rsync script

[Albert Graham <agraham g-b net>]

One suggestion:

Wrap the rsync command and error checking in another script that you 
call from cron, the new script checks for errors, if none, output 
nothing, else output the error message, that way you only get the mail 
if there was an error.
