I think the problem with using a pipe is that it puts te results of the
first command into the input of the second command. My problem is that I
don't have enough space for the output of the first command. On Thu, Feb 16, 2012 at 11:15 AM, Mike Bydalek <mike.byda...@gmail.com>wrote:

I'm using fsarchiver to backup a computer. I don't have enough diskspace
for the archive. I can ssh to another computer. I know which directory I
want to save it in but I don't know how to write the file directly to
it. I tried it with a pipe and I tried it with a greater-than sign.
Pray-tell! how is it done?
