[TriLUG] rsync connections

To answer both questions... to Chris, I can ssh between the machines.  They are
both on my internal network, so I'm not going across a public network.  To
Mark, I just don't even know which way to go.  The man page was a bit confusing
to me about how the connections are made.  I guess I need to know how to get
the connection.  Which is better, trust or ssh?  which is easier?  I have about
20GB of data or less I'll be dealing with.

thanks,
David
