I have been happily rsync'ing for some time, using ssh as root with an
empty passphrase.  I'd like to improve system security and add a
passphrase - any suggestions on how to do that?  I'd like to be able to
run rsync overnight, i.e. without me there to type in a passphrase.

I can imagine burying the passphrase in a script, which would be some
improvement, but perhaps there's something more elegant?
