Deploy HTML site with Flightplan

###Prerequesites

Install flightplan globally

npm install -g flightplan

Install flightplan in your project folder

npm install flightplan

If your project is not currently a git repository, make it one:

git init
git add -A
git commit -m "first commit"

Create your flightplan.js file (changing the host and username)

var plan = require('flightplan');

// configuration
plan.target('production', [
  {
    host: 'willsawesomesite.com',
    username: 'willster',
    port: 2222,
    agent: process.env.SSH_AUTH_SOCK
  },
]);

// run commands on localhost
plan.local(function(local) {
  // uncomment these if you need to run a build on your machine first
  // local.log('Run build');
  // local.exec('gulp build');

  local.log('Copy files to remote hosts');
  var filesToCopy = local.exec('git ls-files', {silent: true});
  // rsync files to all the destination's hosts
  local.transfer(filesToCopy, '~/www/');
});

I'm following the instructions to use flight plan but I'm getting a connection refused. I'm I using the wrong port or is there something else I need to do on hostgator?
