Talk about taking the long route...

rsync --rsh=ssh <SOURCE> <USER>@<HOST>:<DEST>

Then just have a ssh trust relationship established between the sending user and the receiving user and you're done.

That way you don't have to run rsync in daemon mode and have another open, listening socket.

It also forces security.

"I will give that a try also what do you put in the conf file to set a time for the back up to automaticaly run all the time save having to always hand run it. I have looked around a wee bit but cant find it. Cheers" just changed this posting... going to try and set up a cron with it any help would be cool cheers
