Mogens, hello! I used your command, and it looks to work fine, thank's a lot.. but, sorry about my ignorance, I'm trying, but, I'm not getting success to make a command do back-up this.. or be, a command to take the data back.. from the tape.. via SSH too.. Any way, thank's a lot since now! I really appreciated your attention and help! sTAFf > Hello All! > > Someone could say me if there is a way to use CPIO with SSH and no TELNET?! > Example: using port 23 (TELNET) I know that is something like that: > find . -print | cpio -C 65536 -ocvF REMOTEIP:/dev/rmt/Xmn You could test: find . -print | cpio -C 65536 -ocv | ssh REMOTEIP dd of=/dev/rmt/Xmn bs=65536 (on one line).
