The reason why I change my SSH port is a simple way to keep port knocker robots away. Different hosts use different ports...

Oh, right, so you either need to put that in your .ssh/config file or use -e 'ssh -p 613' on the rsync command.
The config file should look like this: Host 192.168.129.2 Port 613
So we end up back needing the -e option or modifying the config file.
thanks for your time. Really.
