Ok, I just setup the log file and this is what I see there:

rsync on cdrive/Temp/pix.log from admx (141.214.137.139)
transfer interrupted (code 3) at flist.c(812)

I had to change [cdrive] from path = "c:\" to path = c: to get rid of
'@ERROR: chdir failed' error.

I am getting close but still need some help. Thanks in advance.
