I need to use rsync for backup to another machine using a nonstandard
port for ssh. 722.
For example, when I test using my translation of the man pages:
rsync [OPTION...] SRC... rsync://[EMAIL PROTECTED]:PORT]/DEST
I use:
rsync -avz /almacen/testDir rsync://backkup.net:722/backup/
the error generated is:
rsync: server sent "SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_5.1p1 FreeBSD-20080901" rather than
greeting
rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at
main.c(1504) [sender=3.0.4]
I believe you want the -e option. Example from the man page:
-e 'ssh -p 2234'
In your case, rsync -e 'ssh -p 722' -avz ........
The [:PORT] you tried appears to be for connecting to an rsync daemon
listening on a non-standard port.
