That would be more of an "interactive" mode than via an rsync server.

Nope. When running an rsync server, rsync is configured as a service in
/etc/inetd.conf and just uses TCP/IP, no rsh or ssh. Which isn't to say
you *can't* have a server that runs rsync as a service and also use rsh/ssh
as the transport method in "interactive" mode. I do so here quite frequently.
HTH - yell if you have more questions. I've found rsync to be a quite
useful utility.
