Hello Wayne,

everything works now. I don't know what happend but my script does what I 
expected.

When I start my rsync-script and then start it again it takes  <1minute to 
compare the source- and dest-dirs and to decide that nothing is to do. And 
when I look into the prot-file I created by piping the output into a file I 
can see that no files were copied.
That's what I expected.

I didn't know what happened in the past.

Sorry for coming with a false-alarm.
