The a argunent to rsync means 'archive', and that means a literal
copy of the user and group numbers for each file from the site you
are archiving. The permissions are also literally copied. Could
that be why you are not seeing files?
Moral: DON'T use -a except to back up _your_ site literally to
somewhere else so it can be restored if necessary. The archive site
_must_ have the same user id and group id assignments.
