You're not using a daemon -- you're using ssh to run rsync remotely.

Both sides of the transfer try to periodically send a keep-alive message if
too much time has elapsed since some data was transferred.  However, rsync
does not always check this enough in some circumstances.  Version 3.1.0 has
an improved keep-alive setup that may help you, but if not, you either need
to increase the timeout or eliminate it (most transfers don't need it).
