I still need to know what it's trying to do next. Ane, cann you run "lsof | grep pid-of-rsync" if it hangs (where pid-of-rsync is the pid of a rsync process of course)? This command will give you all files rsync tries to attach (at the time you run lsof). If there are more rsync processes, try grep -E "(pid1|pid2|pid3)" instead of the simple grep.
