The reason it's failing is that you are trying to execute remote
commands from a locally running script. Once you log off the remote
machine the script will continue to execute
#!/bin/sh
Date=`date -I`
ssh -l tomcate www.MyRemoteHost.net 'tar -cvf \
/opt/tomcat4/MyDir/bk-$Date.tar /opt/tomcat4/webapps/MyApp'
scp tomcat at www.MyRemoteHost.net:MyDir/bk-$Date.tar .
