It may be to do with the CIFS mount options (and for extra fun, I guess
the USB drive's mount options). Can you provide a bit more information
about the USB mount, and exactly what sort of failure rsync produces?
Also, have a look at "man 8 mount", which says:
Mount options for ntfs
iocharset=name
Character set to use when returning file names. Unlike VFAT, NTFS
suppresses names that contain unconvertible characters. Deprecated.
nls=name
New name for the option earlier called iocharset.
utf8
Use UTF-8 for converting file names.
and the corresponding stuff for the CIFS mount. It is necessary that the
characters on the source directory be expressible on the target
directory.
If you hit a dead end here (on this list) there are always the rsync
lists:
