Pipe data through a socket

I have a client/server socket written to perform basic commands. What I am wondering is if I can have the client tell the server.pl tar to stdout back through the socket where the client would gzip from stdin.

We the firewall rule sets we have ssh is our only option, but that seems to add more overhead then we like.

If this is possible does anyone have an example?

Thanks
Scott
