    Ok, after some looking around and testing, think I finally got what I wanted.

    First, map the share, err mount the network share. Gotta use the Linux lingo. :P
    sudo mount -t cifs -o username=MyUserName //PlexServerName/Sharename /mnt/movies/
    Will have to enter both the sudo password and remote Plex server password manually, but that works for me as this is a manual, not automated, process.

    And to sync:
    sudo rsync -hvrPt --ignore-existing /Drive/SourceFolder/ /mnt/movies/

    I was reading somewhere that using -a would add more options that might gum up the works, so I manually expressed what I wanted instead. But I finally got what I was looking for. If you have any suggestions, chime in. Thanks!
