And it failed with:
Unexpected remote arg: 192.168.192.2:/root/samba.PDC/ rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(1330) [sender=3.1.1]
I tried again with:
rsync -ah --stats -e "ssh -p613 -l root" 192.168.192.2:/root/samba.PDC/ /home/rgm/data/htt/httnet/homebase/new/root/
and it worked. This is what I read from the manpage, that "-e" is needed for the ssh command.
