How can I create a .tar archive of a file (say /root/bugzilla) on a remote machine and store it on a local machine. SSH-KEYGEN is installed, so I can by pass authentication.
I am looking for something along the lines of:
tar -zcvf Localmachine_bugzilla.tar.gz /root/bugzilla
ssh <host> tar -zcvf - /root/bugzilla > bugzilla.tar.gz
avoids an intermediary copy.
See also this post for a couple of variants: Remote Linux server to remote linux server dir copy. How?
