The environment variable RSYNC_PASSORD and commandline parameter
--password-file= are for authenticating against an rsync server. If
you're going through ssh, you don't have an rsync question. If you can't
"ssh remotehost date" without a password, rsync isn't going to fake up a
tty and play expect with ssh for you. Make a passphraseless ssh key, and
keep it out of the hands of your enemies. You can even set the
authorized_keys file to permit only rsync to be run over that session.

Sorry to disturb u again,
but now i have one more very small problem.
we need not to supply the password on command line
everytime,
when we will use rsync for transferring files from one
m/c to another,i want to fix login name as well as
passord for a particular m/c.
I try out the option of seting the environment
variable RSYNC_PASSORD and --password-file=FILE .
but both of them is not solve my purpose.
or may be i m not using them in proper way so kindly
gave me ur suggestions regarding the login name and
password.
