Root access over ssh?

Is it possible to configure rsync in server mode, to gain access to root 
protected files, without the user having to log in as root through ssh?

I'd prefer to login as a regular user through ssh and access an rysnc 
server on the host that's running as root.  As far as I can tell, 
however, that's not possible...am I wrong?
