In your first message, you wrote:

: rsync -avz username at serverb:directory/     ./
: 
: This is the error we get
: 
: ssh: connect to host 80.81.131.173 port 22: Connection refused

The command line indicates that you are connecting via ssh from servera
to serverb, and you get a "connection refused", while you now say that
works?

That doesn't matter, you can do "ssh serverX:path path" on one server,
or "ssh path serverY:path" on the other server, and get the same
"direction".
