Sometimes the answer's right in front of you...

I'd copied and pasted an old statement from the other machine and forgotten
to switch the order.  Thanks Wayne.

This is pushing file(s) from /rsynctest/test1 to /test1/test1 on the remote
system, so unless that duplication of the "test1" is intended, you'll need
to tweak your args a bit.  Also, something you said later on in your email
made it sound like you were expecting the /rsynctest dir to be on the remote
system, and if so, you've got the args mixed up.
