rsync - Apr 2007 - How do you specify an alternate config file when using rsync with ssh?

It seems that the "--config" option is only used when rsync is run as
a
daemon.  However, it you want to run something like "rsync -e ssh
--config=<config_FILE> ..." the "--config" option is
ignored.  When I run
rsync with ssh, I want to specify a different config file that contains
different modules than the config file used by the rsync daemon.  How do I
accomplish this?

Thank you.

Specify an --rsync-path that includes the --config option to be given
to the remote process:

rsync --rsync-path='rsync --config=<config-file>' -e ssh
<host::module/path, etc.>
