There is a rather rambling tutorial at:
http://www.ccp14.ac.uk/ccp14admin/rsync/
(this does not have ssh tunnelling in there)
Though for the following - if the files are owned by root - root
will be the only one able to rsync them across?
Maybe creating a special account with some extra file
privaledges but not 100% root could get the job done for
you?
