>>> I've a need for some automated DVD backups. What I'd like would be some
> way to:
>> ssh to a machine, grab files with mkisofs, and spit them to stdout
> The output would then be passed to cdrecord (with suitable sized buffers)
>> So, there would be no need to have temporary files on the DVD machine. At
> the moment, backing up 3GB of files needs 6GB of space on the DVD machine,
> which is a pain.
>> Any ideas how it could be done ?
>> I was thinking of maybe:
>> ssh backup at box mkisofs -o - -R -J / | cdrecord
>> but it doesn't seem that mkisofs can output to stdout at all.
