I've been using rsync to backup my desktop

Actually, to date I have only been backing up
my own files, and have had no problems.
But I was thinking of backing up the whole system,
and I discovered that I would have to allow
root login with ssh.
I know how to do this in the sshd config
but would prefer not to do it if possible.
Is there a simple way round this?
man sshd with particular reference to "AUTHORIZED_KEYS FILE FORMAT"
I think this will do what you want including limit root access to some
particular hosts.
