I hate it when I have to admit defeat but I'm having trouble finding out a resolution to this issue. I'm trying to set up rsync from my linux box to an external drive mounted on a windows box. I mount the drive to /mnt/smb and can access it just fine. But when I attempt to rsync files, it looks like anything beyond one level of sub-directory gives me a permission denied error.
At this point I'm trying a simple directory with a few files and some sub-directories in it. Here's the output:
anthony@dell:~> rsync --verbose --progress --compress --recursive --delete-after --modify-window=1 /home/anthony/Documents/ /mnt/smb/ANTHONY/Dell/ building file list ...
Is this directory name too long for the destination, maybe ?? If so then it will not copy the rest of the directory also, maybe a shorter name would work...
rsync: recv_generator: mkdir "/mnt/smb/ANTHONY/Dell/Open Suse Documentation/pdfdoc" failed: Permission denied (13) *** Skipping everything below this failed directory ***

I've tried several different rsync strings, and get pretty much the same problems regardless of what I do. Anyone have any idea what the problem might be?
