Wayne,

Wayne':
  ssh -l user domainname.com ls -la '/disk2/larry\ jones/bonnie\ jones/'

Becomes:
  rsync -e ssh -vazP "/bob smith/sally smith/"
<user>@domainname.com:'/disk2/larry\ jones/bonnie\ jones/'

Thank you!  You da Man!  

And the interesting thing is that I now believe I understand why one must do
what you suggested - just couldn't see it before.
