</I>I use rsync on the server for local backups, and I use SSH with keys
to access the server from laptops for maintenance tasks, but I have
never managed to make rsync over ssh with keys work. People tell me
to just use ssh without keys, but I'm reluctant to do that. Maybe one
day I'll find something that steps me through it, so that I can find
the missing link.
Of course, I tend to back up user data rather than system, so again, I
don't need remote root login.
