I've been running rsync via kcron with the -v tag to get a list of what is copied, but I can't find the log. From what I understand, there should be a rsync.log under /var/log but it's not there.
Any thoughts?

My thoughts?? I've never heard of kcron, but that's my problem.
I see nothing in 'man rsync' that talks about rsync.log. I DID see a comment that rsync will send its output to stdout.
What's wrong with using '> <path and name of logfile> which is what I told you to do a few days ago??
"A few days ago"? Boy, that's like years ago to me. :-) First, kcron is for low-watt bulbs like me that aren't really sure how to setup a cron task manually. If you type kcron you should get the window pop up...if it's installed. Second, I didn't, and still don't, understand what you wanted me to do with the > <... thing. Where do you want me to stick it? I mean should I put it in the bash script I made (see below)? #!/bin/sh rsync -auvzr --delete /home/tom/Documents/ /mnt/root2/ What does stdout mean?
