Hey John...
Yep. I've noticed that.. And been trying to figure out ust what the dang err is trying to tell me... since I only had the initial dir!
However,, Since I tested what Francis asked me to test... I'm now able to have the rsync working...
And I don't know what the diff is between the cmds..
As far as I can tell, the cmds are the same!
rsync -avz /home/test/cat/ test@192.168.125.133:/home/test/cat
this works, in that the files of /home/test/cat (dir) get copied over to the /home/test/cat dir on the remote side..
this is what i've done 100s of times in the past with other systems.. files.. etc..
no clue what my issue was.. which means I can't solve the issue!! which is in and off itself a pain now!

I don't know if anyone else noticed, but did you see this?

rsync will return a directory in quotes there. Its saying the
directory named explicitly '/home/test/cat/ /home/test' (yes, a space
between /cat/ and /home) is missing.
Now, I'm not seeing that in the rsync command pasted, but rsync seems
to think that's the directory you're asking to sync. If this was
pre-1990 I'd guess it's a terminal overwrite with weird control
characters due to a noisy modem but I'm assuming that Bruce has
something newer than a vt102.
The only way I'm able to get similar results is by including the space
in the right side of the rsync command.
$ rsync -avz '/tmp/foo /tmp/bar' myhost:/tmp/test
sending incremental file list
rsync: change_dir "/tmp/foo /tmp" failed: No such file or directory (2)
sent 20 bytes received 12 bytes 64.00 bytes/sec
total size is 0 speedup is 0.00
rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1189) [sender=3.1.3]
