okay, this is no big deal for an rsync transfer to get interrupted. it'll pick right back up where it left off, too (more properly, it'll send the data necessary to change the target to match the source). it's the principle of the thing -- the process is still chugging along, despite a logout, despite login troubles, whether at console or within X. imagine if i'd been running something IMPORTANT! very, very sexy, this "screen" thing. very!
You can also start it up at, say, boot time running, for example, user-mode-linux or Hercules.
