Then the question is, does your groupname exist on the server you are transferring it to? (or if you are using '--numeric-ids, is your group# (gid) the same on the server you are transferring files to? If not, are you using the --usermap and/or --groupmap options to map your Windows ID's to your server's ID's? Maybe you have already verified this, but usually when I get errors in a transfer, it's because the UID's or user/groupnames on my windows machine don't always match what is on my server -- they mostly do, but I do see errors occasionally in it trying to set things. You can also try the --fake-super option -- that might fake the id's enough for it to work...
