Hello,
when i gave "rsh 66.123.34.123 which rsync" at the source system i got the following error
66.123.34.123:  Connection refused
 
"rsh 66.123.34.123" works perfectly fine.
 
What could be the problem..?
 
Thanks,
Naveen.

I expect you'll get something like "no rsync in /usr/bin /usr/ccs/bin 
/usr/bin/X11 /usr/contrib/bin /usr/local/bin ." Some systems don't report 
the remote shell connection open until the called remote program comes up, 
so one missing from the path can look like a network timeout. I don't 
remember if that's true of any FreeBSD.
If this is the case, use --rsync-path=/wherever/it/is/on/66.123.34.123
