ok, I'm trying to back up my /home folder BEFORE I upgrade my main box 
from SUSE 10.0 to Kubuntu.
I'm getting errors like this:

.paulc_domain.directory/Paul_D/new/
rsync: chown "/windows/E/pbc/.paulc_domain.directory/Paul_D/new" 
failed: Operation not permitted (1)
.paulc_domain.directory/Paul_D/tmp/
rsync: chown "/windows/E/pbc/.paulc_domain.directory/Paul_D/tmp" 
failed: Operation not permitted (1)


the command was:
rsync  -Cavz /home /windows/E/
windows/E is a vfat partition, writeable by all.

some files & folders did copy, and I did not have kmail open when I did 
this.
