Aha! Thanks very much!

This is really cool. However on my system I have
really to use 

rsync -avx /path/to/src oub at localhost:/path/to/usb/dest

Because otherwise the system does not recognise the passwd
of u1002

BTW it seems that the system is using ssh anyway even I did
not specify it in the rsync call, because it said something
of accepting a ssh key in the first call.

The only problem is that it did work in my setting:

 hosts.deny 
ALL:ALL

And no hosts.allow entry.

And I don't like to set

 hosts.allow
 ALL:ALL

So I have to fiddle around a little, or do you know by
change how to set hosts.allow and deny with minimal security
risk.
