I know this is a little off topic, but Mac OSX is based on BSD. You guys
are also the smartest around :D
Rsync on the Mac only opens and copies the data forks. It does not copy the
resource forks. There are still a few applications that use
that Apple came up with is to create .DS_Store and ._foo files to store
this metadata on non HFS+ volumes.
You could try using ditto instead of rsync. ditto is a BSD derived copy
utility similar to rysnc, but I know that the Mac OS X version understands
resource forks and copies them as necessary

It goes wrong when I run the rsync line; I run my backup thru port 123
(can be any portnumber).

Sorry for the confusion; the problem is in the rsync line:
rsync -avpog /var/db/mysql //r...@10.10.10.50:123/usr/backup/
Running this line causes rsync to say:
Unexpected remote arg: r...@10.10.10.50:123
rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(1202) [sender=3.0.5]
On the server

In order to be able to sourt your backups by date,
you could use the form
DATE=`date +%y%m%d`
or
DATE=`date
Adding full path for rsync was the solution.
All backups done last night on schedule.
Thanks to all that offered advice.
