That will use the default port on the remote host, you can override that without specifying the -e if required using -p <port>.

From 'man rsync':

-p, --perms This option causes the receiving rsync to set the destination permissions to be the same as the source per- missions.

Try this:

rsync -ah --stats --delete root@192.168.129.2:613:/etc/dhcp/ /home/rgm/data/htt/httnet/homebase/new/dhcp
