I need to use rsync for backup to another machine using a nonstandard

I've tried many variants but none have worked.  Any suggestions would
be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
-e 'ssh -p722' should do it in theory
I'm not certain if rsync over ssh honours the SSH_CONFIG(5) file(s) it
should do though. If so it could also be added on a per host basis there.
something like

Host foo.example.com
Port 722
User myuser
IdentityFile /path/to/custom/key

Hi Vince,

I tested the ssh_config changes and indeed they work beautifully and give me an added layer of flexibility. This certainly seems to be the optimal solution for for different host configurations without having to change remote scripts.

I hadn't even considered it.  Again DUH! Hello!

I can't thank you enough.
