To preface, I'm running Leopard OSX and am using rsync  version 2.6.9
protocol version 29.

Whenever I attempt to sync (using rsync obviously) a folder on my
local drive to my web server (netfirms.com is my web host) using SSH,
the process hangs. I have to force kill it in order to continue using
Terminal. I can connect to my server space using SSH just fine by
itself, and I ran rsync to sync two folders locally just fine. Is
there some special syntax I need to use when using rsync with SSH?
I've searched google and the mailing lists, and I didn't find much.
I'm fairly inexperienced with Unix, so I believe that I am the culprit
of this problem :-)

Please look in the mailing list's archive, rsync stalls keep coming up.
e.g. http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2007-November/019243.html
or http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2007-October/018770.html

This is Mac, so it has nothing to do with common stall problems (Windows and Cygwin). Except if web company uses Windows for servers (which I doubt very much).

Try adding more than one -v to rsync arguments (e.g. -azvvvv) and see if rsync reports anything....

Other than that, if you can connect with ssh to the same username/ server and rsync just hangs, talk to the webhost.
