I'm not certain if that would work. You can pipe to multiple processes through tee. So perhaps something like this could work:<br><br>zcat ./my.img.gz | tee >(nc <a href="http://192.168.10.1">192.168.10.1</a> 9000) >(nc <a href="http://192.168.10.2">192.168.10.2</a> 9000) >(nc 192.168.100.10.3 9000) |nc 192.168.100.10.4 9000<br>

I'll tell you what I do but what are the times were talking about? How much time for how much data?<br>

zcat ./my.img.gz | nc <a href="http://192.168.10.10" target="_blank">192.168.10.10</a> 9000<br>
<br>
nc -l -p 9000 | dd of=/dev/sda<br>

I'm using the setup above to image hard drives ...one computer at a time ...works great, but I want to speed things up...<br>
<br>
does this look right:<br>
<br>
source(<a href="http://192.168.10.10" target="_blank">192.168.10.10</a>) image command:<br>
zcat ./my.img.gz | nc -b -p 9000<br>
<br>
<br>
destination command:<br>
nc -l -n <a href="http://192.168.10.10" target="_blank">192.168.10.10</a> -p 9000 | dd of=/dev/sda<br>
<br>
and another destination command:<br>
nc -l -n <a href="http://192.168.10.10" target="_blank">192.168.10.10</a> -p 9000 | dd of=/dev/sda<br>
<br>
and another destination command:<br>
nc -l -n <a href="http://192.168.10.10" target="_blank">192.168.10.10</a> -p 9000 | dd of=/dev/sda<br>
