rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1183) [sender=3.1.1]

What in the world is happening? This seems to me like it should be working.

Why do you have a space between "-" and "avz"?

Code:

rsync - avz

surely should be

Code:

rsync -avz

Also, why are you trying to rsync /Documents/LOGGING, shouldn't that be /home/hunter/Documents/LOGGING?

And you should verify you actually want compression. Over a LAN it will probably just slow things down due to the compression overhead.
