[TriLUG] FTP as a stream endpoint

[Brian Henning]

Hi Y'all,
   The subject may be a bad choice of words, but here's what I want to 
accomplish, in pseudo-shell code:

tar -cj /some_path/to_backup > ftp user:pass at server put some_file

In English, I want the stdout from tar to go across an ftp link as a PUT 
to a file on the ftp server...

Or an SCP transfer (instead of FTP) would be fine too.

This seems so simple, it probably is and I feel somewhat foolish 
asking..  Just have little time to go scouring, if someone can provide 
an answer, or pointer, more quickly. :-)

Rock on,
~Brian
