First... do not use -z all files are already compressed... most sites
recomend to turn this off, as it is cpu intensive.
secondly not need to set the complete path use the module instead...
rsync -av (no z) -n (as this is your first try use) --delete-after --progress
--update sunsite.uio.no::Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586 /home/whatever-dir/cooker
And this is what I actually use:
rsync -a -vvv --progress --partial --update --delete
ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586 /home/admin/cooker
