Rsync problems...help pls

Well I just bought some remote backup space. I am trying to get rsync to backup the /home folder. Here is the command I am using:

rsync -avr -e ssh --bwlimit=875 --progress --delete username@atlanta.somewhere.net:/home /home


When the command is ran all it does is sit there, the is no output nothing I have ctrl+c it... What am I missing? I also noticed that the program doesn't specify where to put your password for the remote backup site...
