Is it possible to specify a different ssh port when using rsync?

Question

I have been attempting the following command:

rsync -rvz --progress --remove-sent-files ./dir user@host:2222/path

SSH is running on port

Answer 1

A bit offtopic but might help someone. If you need to pass password and port I suggest using sshpass package. Command line command would look like this: sshpass -p "password" rsync -avzh -e 'ssh -p PORT312' root@192.xx.xxx.xxx:/dir_on_host/
