You must first allow root ssh on destination server and set root password (only temporarily!).

To copy a directory from one host to an existing directory on another host (via SSH): 

rsync -a -e ssh /export/nfs/swn coil:/export/tarballs/swn_test
  • A trailing slash in the source field means 'copy the contents of this folder'.
  • No trailing slash in the source field means 'copy this entire file or folder'.
  • A trailing slash in the destination field means 'copy contents to this folder'.
  • No trailing slash in the destination field means 'copy entire file or folder to this file or folder name'.
