Reverse command
Hi,

Apologies in advance - out of my scope here but would love your help.

I have the following command on destination system to copy data from one system to another:

Code:
rcmd [Sourcemachine] "cd data; find . -print|cpio -ocB" | dd ibs=5k obs=5k|cpio -iducmvB

I am looking to run a once off command from the Sourcemachine to push the data on the sourcemachine to the destination machine.

Thanks in advance

Do you have scp, rcp or rsync available? With a here-script you could also use sftp or ftp for the transfer.
