Dynamic address problem

[tim.conway at philips.com]

How about switching to password authentication?  Makes you spoof-proof. 
Anybody who can sniff your network to get the plaintext can probably spoof 
your IP anyway, so you lose no security(probably gain a bit), and this 
doesn't have to wait for dns registration to propogate.

I assume that this could be DNS-update (resp. -actuality) Problem.
Are you sure, that at the moment rsync is called, the server's
DNS-resolver delivers the correct IP?
