I want to secure some remote rsyncs over ssh by using the command= option in .authorized_keys. As I understand I can use only the full command there, as it is not a list of "allowed commands" but the command that will be executed when logging in with this key. Now, I'm running several rsync commands on individual directories in the root, not just one command. I do that to pull different exclude lists in. I want to exclude nothing in some directories and a few different things in other directories. rsyncing per /rooted directory seems to be the cleanest and easiest way. All other combinations of complicated exclude/include lists may have unexpected results. I thought about putting the remote command in a shell script. However, I think this won't work as each rsync on the remote side will be executed with the first rsync command in the script on the local side. Is there a solution (besides using several keys or so)?
