>So where does the rsync you mentioned previously fit into this?

A cron runs on warm_standby to pull (and delete) the WAL's from the master.

rsync -avz --progress --remove-sent-files master:/var/lib/pgsql/archives/ 
/var/lib/pgsql/archives/

I agree.  pg_standby --help says exactly that.

-l                 does nothing; use of link is now deprecated

>Where are you getting pg_standby from?

-bash-3.2$ which pg_standby
/usr/bin/pg_standby

-bash-3.2$ pg_standby --version
pg_standby (PostgreSQL) 8.4.17
