piping over ssh

[tedu <grendel@zeitbombe.org>]

Generically, here's my question.  I'd like to know how to set up some pipe
between two networked computers sent via ssh channel.  Such that

host1$ echo hi > ssh_pipe_file
host2$ cat ssh_pipe_file
hi

would happen.

Specifically, I'm trying to transfer audio data from a host with a player
to a host with a sound card.  Maybe there's a simpler way to do just this?
