- I use rsync, but not in such a complicated way.

- My usual rsync is somethin like rsync -e ssh local/path
- host:/remote/path.

- That's adequate for me, to copy things.

Huh! So it must have been a problem with the protocol because i added -e
ssh to my command above, and now it works.

(I still don't understand why it doesn't work without the -e option,
though...)

Thanks for all the input.
