But there's a little rub - the redirection on W2K side introduces a carriage-return character before each line-feed, like ftp in ascii mode. Sorry about that.

Both rexec.exe and rsh.exe from W2K have the problem. However, the rsh.exe from Hummingbird's Exceed package works just fine. I copied it into my cygWin's /usr/bin directory and did cd /cygdrive/c/temp time rsh p92 cd /local;tar cbf 64 - SAS | dd of=here.tar and the file is OK. It tars out all the files in SAS directory. Unfortunately cygWin's ls -l shows the file size modulo 2 GB, like this: -rw-rw-rw- 1 root mkpasswd 786464768 Nov 24 15:49 here.tar But W2K's dir sees the size correctly as: 24.11.2003 15:495.081.432.064 here.tar Note that the file is quite a bit smaller than the one obtained with W2K's rexec.exe and rsh.exe (21,043,160 bytes shorter), because there is no LF-CR/LF translation with Hummingbird's rsh.exe. | But there's a little rub - the redirection on W2K side | introduces a carriage-return character before each | line-feed, like ftp in ascii mode.
