rsync on ESXi 6.5

Is there a way we can compile rysnc binary for ESXi 6.5 host??

Tried this https://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2011/02/how-to-compile-statically-linked-rsync.html​  but did not help.

Any suggestions please?

I was searching for this myself, found a precompiled binary that works on 6.7.

Has anyone tested this?

I'm certainly not giving my IP address and password to a script.

echo " "

  read -p "Type the Ip Address of ESXI: " ipaddress

 

echo " "

  read -p "Type the Password of ESXI: " password

I have find myself in a similar situation, similar because I was using ESXI 7.0. I have managed to compile static rsync using docker. I have stored the code and documented the usage in github https://github.com/gbenguria/rsync-esxi-docker-compiler
