'exit' should work fine to log out of a remote server over ssh.

Why do you need to create a list of the files if you already know what files you want? I might try something like:

Code:
ssh hostB find /data/test -mtime -7 -print0 '|' xargs --null tar -zcf -' > files.tar.gz

This will find the files you want and stream them to you over a tarball, to be saved into files.tar.gz on your system. Note that the single brackets around the | are not optional since it is to be executed on the remote system, not locally. Also note, if there are hundreds or thousands of filenames, it may be too much for one commandline, and hence xargs, to handle...
