Not sure if this is your problem or not, but I had some
problems running rsync out of fcron ( a cron replacement), due
to problems with the current working directory.

You might try something like:

00 01 * * * cd /;rsync -av --delete /mnt/web1 /mass/kuurne/day

That fixed my problem when running out of cron.

Good Luck!
