You need to enable password-less access, usually accomplished by using an ssh-key setup and having ssh forward authorizations using ssh-agent. There is a link on the resources page of the web site that talks about password-less ssh access. Also, make sure that your ssh doesn't turn off "ForwardAgent". (To test this, you should be able to run the command "ssh BoxB ssh BoxC uptime" without any password prompting from BoxB to BoxC.)
See also the "keychain" project for a way to manage an ssh-agent on your backup machine so that you can automate the rsync runs and still have your private key secured using a passphrase.
Also, how do I make it use a tunnel to BoxB?
You don't -- there's no need for that. Rsync uses ssh by default these days (but see also the --rsh (-e) option and the RSYNC_RSH environment variable for how to customize what remote shell is used by rsync if ssh is not being used by default).

Wayne,
That worked perfect thanks a ton. Do you maintain the FAQ? I'll write up something if you want
