The client side should be run from cron or a windows scheduler. <snip> If you are really trying to only run the daemon at certain times (say because of a capacity issue), that could also be done from cron. I assume that "windows scheduler" could also shut down the rsync daemon.
Another alternative would be to run it from xinetd, and put the limits in your xinetd.conf file. If you really have capacity issues, then running from xinetd does impose some overhead, but you can possibly do some fine grain control that might help with the loading.
