To exclude a directory, the following syntax is used in general:



rsync -avz --exclude 'directory' source/ destination/


Also, note that to specify an alternative port, -e 'ssh -p PORT_NO' is used and not "-e ssh -p PORT_NO"



So, try to run the following command :



rsync -avzP --exclude '/home/username/public_html/raj/sandip' -e 'ssh -p 18765' username@c45562.server.net:/home/username/public_html/raj/ /home/rajrathodbvn/public_html/raj/


This syntax has been verified on Ubuntu 16.04.

    +1, Good catch :-) You identified another problem, than the OP pointed to. General comment: In the manual man rsync the syntax is --exclude=PATTERN, but I tested (in 18.04.1 LTS), and it works with a space instead of the equal sign.
