Now.. Can anyone tell me how to set up rsync to use ssh??
rsync -ave ssh seems to be the idea but i keep geting ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host whenever i try. (after setting up passwordless logins using SSH, from server1 to server2 I can get from server2 to server1 anymore!)
export RSYNC_RSH=ssh
Hmm.. SNAFU here in my area. Didn't realise when I placed server2 into server1's hosts.deny list. After I removed it, I can get to Server1 but I'm still being asked a password.
Have you tried using public key authentication for SSH or, even better, Kerberos IV? If my memory serves me well, there is a HOWTO at Red Hat describing how to use ssh-keygen to create a private/public key pair and how to add the public key to the remote server by placing it inside .ssh/authorized_keys. Alternatively, man sshd contains interesting information.
This is the script which can help.
