Indeed -E (apple style) seems necessary to keep the files attributes Apple is using in its standard mode (i.e. not X11).
Concerning my problem, with both Apple rsync (/usr/bin/rsync) and Macport rsync (/opt/local/bin/rsync), the process
laucnhed via crontab starts, rsync runs but is only accessing the backup HD in read mode and never in write mode and
its eventually hangs up. If I launch the same program by a command line, both read and write modes are activated.
I have no idea why the crontab launch prevents rsync to write and I don’t know how I can test that.
