Copy datastreams via SSH

Posted on 2012-10-02 by 0xB455

I just realized that one can push or pull data streams through SSH as well. Just used it with DD and it saved me a lot of time.

pushing with DD:

ssh target_address dd if=remotefile | dd of=localfile

1	ssh target_address dd if=remotefile \| dd of=localfile

pulling with DD:

dd if=localfile | ssh target_address dd of=remotefile

1	dd if=localfile \| ssh target_address dd of=remotefile
