rsync over ssh over proxy

[tmfs]

Hey,

My computer currently has access to the internet only through a proxy, thus I'm forwarding my ssh connection to port 8080 through corkscrew.

I need to run rsync over this ssh connection - does anyone know how to make it work? Just typing "rsync username@destination-ssh-server:folder-name" doesn't work since this doesn't forward the ssh traffic to port 8080.

I'm using Ubuntu 10

Thanks

Try this:

rsync -v -e ssh username@remote-system:/sync_dir /path/to/local/sync_dir

[tmfs]

Try this:

rsync -v -e ssh username@remote-system:/sync_dir /path/to/local/sync_dir

That works thanks!

PS - to those who are using corkscrew - I had to replace username@remote-system with a custom Host I had configured in my .ssh/config file which used corkscrew.
