Is it possible to pipe the output datastream of tar over an SSH connection?
Let's say I am logging in to a remote server via SSH and want to make a backup, taring some files before moving them to my computer. Is it possible to tell tar that it shouldn't create the archive on the remote host but on my machine, effectively creating some kind of pipe over the SSH connection???
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!
