I have a command that does what I want, but that means it uses three
options (-t --time, -o --owner, and -g --group), all three of which
require root.  Ultimately this will be run daily at 2am. Getting up at
2am to pump in my password is not going to happen. 

According to the rsync man page adding --super is supposed to eliminate
this need. I just tried it. The man page lied. Or maybe I failed to
understand it completely.

According to what I have read it is also possible to supply a password
in a shell script, but that this is an extremely high security risk.

There must be a way around this dilemma. Suggestions?
