ZoneAlarm did ask if I'd like to let rsync access the internet and I did say to allow it. However it never asks it ssh.exe should be allowed to access the net. Lastly I don't think the port is the problem because even when I shut down ZoneAlarm I get the same result. I have been able to use rsync just by itself to sync with a rsync server with ZoneAlarm still running.
