The first problem is that you're attempting to use a remote transport on a
local transfer.
The second problem is that you have put "-e rsh" after filespecs, thus
having it interpreted as such.
What you have asked rsync to do is to put the contents of "source/",
"dest/", and the object "-e", in to the directory "rsh". I'm just
guessing that's not what you wanted.
A correct cmdline to do what it appears you want would be
"rsync -r source/ dest/"
. If you have removed a hostname from the source or dest path, you'd want
"rsync -r -e rsh source/ desthost:dest/"
or
"rsync -r -e rsh sourcehost:source/ dest/"
, depending on which is the remote.
If I read my country codes correctly, you're to be commended for
interpreting the documentation as well as you have... I sure couldn't read
Polish.
