Hi, I have a question about security with rsync which I want to use to do automatic backups of a cvs tree. I have two options: the first one is to use rsync with ssh but it requires me to type in my ssh password each time and is not really convenient for an automatic process. I could of course use ssh without password authentication (just ip address) but it would open big security holes on the server where backups are made... The second option is to use rsync in daemon mode with password authentication but in that case file transfers will not be encrypted.
What do you think the is best option in terms of security ? Any ideas ? Gratefully, Bruno -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
