rsync and ssh port
 

Hello

I want to backup some files from remote machine with rsync and ssh, but my ssh uses different port ie 2002. Could you please help me with the rsync command for specifying command. for eg.

$ rsync -avr -e ssh thitto@192.168.0.1:2001/home/thitto/ /dstdir/


Is this correct?

to specify a port

rsync --port=n

can you try this

rsync -vrae 'ssh -p 8022' /home/bill/Gates/
