Backup across a network

I'd like to create a dump saveset across the network. When I did this on
my DECstation (Ultrix) to a VAX running VMS I used something like:

        dump 9uf / - | compress -cv | dcp -i name_at_host:filename

This won't work for me now on my AlphaStation (DU 3.2d) because I don't
have DECnet installed (nor do I want to) and I can't see a way to make
rcp accept anything from stdin. I want to avoid creating the dump file
on my local machine and copying it. Any ideas?
