The drive is mounted by me as a user and has full read write access, the
command is run by me as a user. Here is the corresponding line in my fstab
file (its listed in the dynamic section)

/dev/sdc1 /mnt/sdc1 ext3 noauto,users,exec 0 0

The files I mentioned with the odd ending, these are not viewable anywhere,
they are only listed when rsync runs.

Should I run fsck on sdc1 to see if it picks up any odd files?? if so what is
the best options??
