There are several ways to use rsync.
1) with its native protocol, with a server setup somewhere
2) using rsh or ssh in which case sshd needs to be running on the target
server like this...
rsync -e ssh -av <fromdir> user@host:/<todir>
The local user must have read permissions on <fromdir> and the remote
user must have write permissions on <todir>. Nicely automatible with
ssh keys.
