I'm interested in setting up linux->linux backup.  I don't like the idea of 
giving permission for machine1 as user backup to ssh to machine2 as root.  What 
are the options?

1. Can ssh be restricted so that the only command user backup can run is rsync?
2. Is there an easy way (using acls?) to give a user backup read access to 
everything (probably not)
3. Some other options I haven't thought of?
