I use it all the time it allows drilling (browsing) into archives and rpm file
just like they were regular directories. I DO need to figure out the execution
thing though that is really scary

no suprise here (I think)
022
HOME=/home/bhughes
HOSTTYPE=i386
LOGNAME=bhughes
MAIL=/var/spool/mail/bhughes
OSTYPE=Linux
PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin
SHELL=/bin/bash
SHLVL=1
SSH_CLIENT=192.168.0.101 1023 22
TERM=dumb
USER=bhughes
_=/usr/bin/env
ssh -l bhughes compaq2 'touch testfromgdu'
yields
-rw-r--r-- 1 bhughes bhughes 0 Apr 21 10:05 testfromgdu
that's what I expected.
Of couse this is not the same way I am getting there since I am using the
--rsh-command ssh option to tar.
I'll keep digging. Going toward the tar docs now.
Something interesting:
using the same command to send the output file to itself on gdu also creates the
funky permissions
[root@gdu1 /tmp]# tar -cvf bhughes@gdu1:/tmp/gdutest.tar
--rsh-command=/usr/bin/ssh /home/bhughes
yields:
-rw-r-xr-T 1 bhughes bhughes 7208960 Apr 21 10:38 gdutest.tar
hmmm. any Ideas anyone?
