To configure Rsync file transfer on an SSH server, follow these steps:
1. Install Rsync on both the source and destination servers. If you’re using Linux, you can install it using the package manager of your distribution.
1. Make sure that the SSH server is installed and configured on both the source and destination servers.
1. Create an SSH key pair for the user account that you’ll be using to transfer files. You can do this using the ssh-keygen command.
1. Copy the public key to the destination server. You can do this using the ssh-copy-id command.
1. Test the SSH connection by running the following command:
ssh username@destination\_server Replace “username” with the username of the account you’ll be using to transfer files, and “destination\_server” with the hostname or IP address of the destination server.1. Once the SSH connection is working, you can start using Rsync to transfer files. Here’s a basic command that you can use:
rsync -avz -e “ssh -p port_number” /path/to/source/folder username@destination_server:/path/to/destination/folder Replace “port\_number” with the SSH port number (if it’s not the default port 22) and replace “/path/to/source/folder” and “/path/to/destination/folder” with the actual paths of the folders you want to transfer.1. You can add this command to a cron job to automate the file transfer.
