I plan to now move on to POP and IMAP over stunnel, getting rsync over stunnel setup correctly was a good test as I don't interupt any of my users. Plus it was kind of a rub that I couldn't get it to work in the first place. I probably should make note that rsync -e ssh would do the trick. Actually, in 2.6.0 it's the default. Plus doing it this way forces clients to use the tunnel where as rsync -e ssh would still allow clients to connect insecurely. Mostly a learning expereince that I hope to carry to other projects.
