ftp.FreeBSD.org doesn't offer rsync access, and in general I'd urge you
to mirror from a different mirror closer to you, there's nothing magic
about ftp.FreeBSD.org compared to the other mirrors, except it gets a
harder beating.

If you want to become a official mirror, and carry everything, you can
probably sync from ftp-master.FreeBSD.org.

Either way, the friendly people on hubs@FreeBSD.org (Cc'd) can probably
help you out, either by telling you a host you can rsync from closer to
you than ftp.FreeBSD.org, or give you access to ftp-master.
