#Sync all verbose with progress from remote server to local. This is intended as a one shot sync, not to be scheduled as a cron job. Written for use with FreeNAS 8.2 as non-standard ports take a bit of work to get working.
#XXXX after the p flag should be replaced with the port.
rsync -avPz -e "ssh -pXXXX $portNumber" user@remote:/path/to/files/ /local/path/
