Wayne's point of saying "use a daemon" (to paraphrase a bit :-)
is to eliminate use of ssh. By explicitly passing an --rsh option you
tell rsync to connect via ssh, and then start a one-off rsync daemon for
this transfer.
Try starting the rsync daemon separately first on the remote, i.e.
something like:
rsync --daemon --config /etc/rsyncd.conf
Then do the transfer like this:
rsync -a rsyncuser <at> example.com::rsync_module/files /path/to//bak//
Add nice -n 19 where appropriate :-) (on one or both ends, depending on
what you want).

sorry, working on two different machines, so half of the emails on the other computer
ok i did all as suggested, and tried
rsync -a rsyncer at example.com::rsync_module/ /path/to/bak/
and
rsync -a --password-file=/path/to/pwfile rsyncer at example.com::rsync_module/ /path/to/bak/
but it says @ERROR: access denied to rsync_module from unknown (ip.add.re.ss) for both
