Disclaimer, I've been a Linux admin for a while but don't frequently setup rsysnc jobs.
Here's the command I'm running on CentOS 5.5, rsync 2.6.8:
/src has 1.5 TB of data, /dest/ is a new destination and started out empy. Oh ya, both /srv and /dest are cifs shares. I know that /src is off a Windows 2008 server and /dest I have no idea. The /src is a local file server connected via 1g ethernet and /dest is remote on the other end of a slow WAN link.
Here's the mount output:
Here's the part that's got me scratching my head. This transfer has been running for a few hours and seems to be fine. I know it's gonna take a few days and I'm good with that. BUT, I'm watching transfer and as a file completes I'm doing a ls -lah so I can see the completed file but its not there... like all the directories are being created, the copies are taking time and doing their work but when I browse or ls the directory it's empty.
What's the deal?

Bonus question; without stopping the running job anyone got a good way to see how much has transferred? df -h /dest doesn't seem to produce any useful output.
