      <p>Seriously? There is a security environment where rsync is
        preferred over passwordless ssh? Raw rsync trusts the source

    rsync over ssh.  He specifically mentions using passwordless ssh. 
    rsync is a binary as well as a line protocol, and here it is
    specifically using ssh for the file transfer.<br>

    This  last line is what, I think, is causing the confusion.  I
    assume you mean "we will use rsync itself as  proof-of-concept until
    we have the passwordless ssh solution."<br>
