[[email posted back to list with servers and paths obfuscated]]
I notice you aren't specifing a username on the remote machine,
machine.local. When using SSH transport, I personally always recommend
specifying the remote user account; for example
jennlu@machine.local:/export/path/name/ if the remote account you wished
to use was "jennlu".
You need to make sure that you can successfully issue the command "ssh
username@remoteserver" in exactly the same form you specify it in your
rsync command line, and further make sure that you don't need a password
to access that account. If you can't ssh to user@remoteserver without a
password, rsync won't be able to access it (using SSH transport) either
- so you'll need to either publish keys and get SSH working properly, or
set up an rsync daemon and use its transport instead.
