Error?

[Jim Salter]

I'd bet there's something else starting up rsync besides cron.  Possibly 
a script in periodic, possibly a startup/init script, possibly something 
in another crontab, possibly inetd/xinetd.

Check ALL the possible locations for things that periodically get fired 
off to startup programs, and get back with us - that means all the 
crontabs, everything in init.d / rc.d or whatever your OS uses, 
/etc/periodic if applicable, the AT queue, inetd, the whole nine.  I 
sincerely doubt that rsync itself is randomly firing off instances of 
itself without being asked to.
