If you decide to go the rsync route, here are the commands i used, i can
explain it to you if you need it.

This is the command that i used for backups:  

rsync -e ssh -varuzLP ~/Documents ~/torrents ~/src
metta@192.168.1.8:/home/metta/backup/ /*use rsync to backup files */

and the command to generate security keys:

/* create key pair so no password needed with ssh, turn off password
auth in /etc/ssh/sshd_config*/
ssh-keygen -t dsa /* on source system, just hit enter @ prompts */
ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub metta@192.168.1.8 /* dest machine */
