SSH

ssh (SSH client) is a program for logging into a remote machine and for executing commands on a remote machine. It is intended to replace rlogin and rsh, and provide secure encrypted communications between two untrusted hosts over an insecure network. X11 connections and arbitrary TCP ports can also be forwarded over the secure channel.

rsync over ssh command to sync local to remote directory

I have a huge amount of files that I was using FTP to upload to my web server but now so large getting issues with FTP timing out and instead of starting out where I left off I have to start over from scratch. (Plus its power outage time of year here)

rsync over ssh seems like what I need but the examples I'm finding are not working. My ssh port is not the default and that is probably what is causing the errors (-p 2288 should work but?)

rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(1219) [sender=3.0.6]
