Would it have to be ssh? Why not just use netcat [nc(1)] if both machines are on your local network? Try something like: <destination machine, booted e.g. from CD> newfs /dev/foo mount /dev/foo /mntroot cd /mntroot nc -l 65000| restore -rvf - <source machine> dump -0 -a -C 8 -L -u -f - / | nc <dest> 65000 Roland -- R.F.Smith http://www.xs4all.nl/~rsmith/ [plain text _non-HTML_ PGP/GnuPG encrypted/signed email much appreciated] pgp: 1A2B 477F 9970 BA3C 2914 B7CE 1277 EFB0 C321 A725 (KeyID: C321A725)
