Ok, thanks for the info. That seems to open up the issue of network security 
(yes NFS security normally isnt great, but...)

rsyncd native: is this bug free and secure (based on hosts_allow/hosts_deny?), 
perhaps a good solution with tcpwrappers?
rsh: no thanks
ssh: dont really want to have to put public private keys on systems to allow 
non interactive logons

Any comments on the above assesment or advise from others regarding security?

thanks Andy.
  Rsync works on a client/server system. So it's recommended to install rsync 
on both machines (your and the server), so you bypass NFS and connect to the 
server via rsync protocol. That's the way to use the delta incremental 
algorithm.
