Thanks Wayne :-) Will enjoy being able to use octal modes in 3.1.x. Wrongly I understood that each chmod mode after a D applies to directories and F to files. Thank you for taking the time to show the right and minimal ways. I tried to think of text to suggest for the rsync man page but the best I came up with is changing "item" to "MODE" for closer alignment with the chmod(1) man page and changing the example from Dg+s,ug+w,Fo-w to ug+w,Dg+s,Fo-w.
