Either rsh or ssh into the machine as the user you're doing the rsync
as and 'echo $PATH'. This is the path used to find rsync.

BTW, modifying the value of RSYNC_NAME in rsync.h to the path of rsync
on the remote machine will work around --rsync-path=[path to rsync].
Would it be worthwhile to have a configure option to change the
default?
