secure rsync question

Ah, why?

These are files accessible via anonymous ftp? So, there's nothing there
to be encrypted. Your password isn't traveling anywhere on the net.

Yes, you can do -e ssh with rsync, and it's certainly advisable when
moving sensitive data, including your account password.

But, think a bit more clearly about this, please.

If Linux can't solve your computing problem, you need a different problem.
