Be vary tho.
Named pipes have limited buffer size, which depend on operating system and its implementation.

If you are sure those limits won't be hit and remote host will always work....
Otherwise you risk losing logs.

This is reinventing the wheel so to say, a real crude way to ship logs.

Also, using single redirection ... > log.txt , will if a linux laptop process is restarted overwrite log.txt, causing again past log loss.

As bakunin mentioned, a logger facility will be much more robust, configurable and is in the standard.
