Hi and thanks for the tip!

Have created my .pgpass-file, and is able to connect as well to my
local server as to my remote server, each for them self.

This:

/usr/local/bin/psql -U user_local db_local

and:

/usr/local/bin/psql -U user_remote -h host_remote db_remote

works fine.

This, though, doesn't work:

/usr/local/bin/psql -U user_local db_local | /usr/local/bin/psql -U
user_remote -h host_remote db_remote

Any tips, anyone?

Sincerely

Victor
