Just to add to this, I did see your post Janina about rmt, but reading
the man page for rmt seems to indicate that it is used to remotely
control tape drives, there is no mention of writing to a file on the
hard disk.

Yes, I also know that ssh is an option, but since I wouldn't be using
this outside of my LAN, the encryption performed by ssh would be a
waist of bandwidth and cpu cycles that I could do without. Thanks.
