Hi Joe,
Here is a shell script I inherited. Probably someone before me found it on a website for all I know. I do not fully understand it however just modify the rsync= line, modify the paths= area, and replace ServerNameGoesHere with the destination server. You may want to remove the MySql part.
I'm guessing this works because there is a key in place already.
#!/bin/bash
# sync content to off-site systems
[ -t 1 ] && v=vP
rsync=( rsync -az$v -e "ssh -p 22" --bwlimit=2000 --delete-after )
paths=(
/home # main thing to get sync'd
/etc/php.ini # what if php.d is out of sync?
# /etc/php.d # sync via yum somehow?
# /var/lib/mysql # use replication instead
/var/www/html # nothing here usually
/var/www/cgi-* # cgiwrap and phpwrap
# /var/lib/php/session # sessions will break anyway
)
for path in "${paths[@]}"
do
[ -t 1 ] && echo "$path"
"${rsync[@]}" "$path" ServerNameGoesHere:"${path%/*}/" & [ -t 1 ] && wait
done
# sync mysql to a backup folder (replication normally handles it)
[ -t 1 ] && echo /var/lib/mysql
"${rsync[@]}" /var/lib/mysql/ ServerNameGoesHere:/var/lib/mysql-rsync/
wait
[ -t 1 ] ||
while pgrep -x rsync >/dev/null
do
echo rsync still running!
sleep 10
done

How can one do two or more rsyncs with entering the password just once?

Thanks Brian. That is exactly what I was looking for.

That is also a very helpful suggestion (others have recommended),
but just haven't got it done yet.
