You have to generate a ssh key for both accounts and add them to the known hosts and authorizatio files. In addition the sshd config file has to allow it. in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config you need these options PasswordAuthentication no PubkeyAuthentication yes (or at least not no since it is default to yes) You must generate a private and public key on the client and the server On the client ssh-keygen -q -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa -t rsa it promps a password for the private key - use a password to encrypt it. open in VI using X11 vi ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub Copy the key to the X11 buffer ssh to the server vi ./.ssh/authorized_keys if it has something drop to the bottom of the file type a for append paste the key Reverse the proccess for the server to the client Now - use rsyn normally through ssh.
