Rsync can either run via ssh or as a server.  We generally use it in server
mode to do things like update secondary name server's tinydns data files,
restricting access to specific secondary directories based on IP address.
Doing it that way as opposed to using ssh eliminates some of the
authentication hassles, and the DNS data isn't sensitive.  This is also a
very good way of publishing web sites from a master server.
