hi,
I create user rsyncbackup and add to sudoers file.
rsyncbackup ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/rsync
Must also edit the RsyncClientCmd & RysncClientRestoreCmd
$sshPath -q -x -l rsyncbackup $host /usr/bin/sudo $rsyncPath $argList+
also user will still need authorized_keys file for ssh with no password
access from server to client.
