My suggestion:
Setup SSH to use keys.
Google ssh keys for explaination.
Read some of the many tutorials on rsync out there.

Tip: if you're going to run the script daily you should consider setting up a lock file.
By using a lock file you won't have to worry about the script completing before the next one starts.

If you're impatient email me and I'll give you a copy of the script I wrote.

PS
Please post questions in text format not html.
