Gurus,

It was my typo error (empty head), still I wasn't
disappointed by sending it to the list because you get
different feedbacks/ways of doing things. Thanks goes
to :
Lumpkin, Buddy
David Foster   
Robert L. Harris   
Matthew Stier 
ddunham@tsg.taos.com   
JULIAN, JOHN C (AIT)   
Christian Iseli     

for their valuable time. I am going to avid using cat
as Darren suggested below.
cpio -ocv &lt; /tmp/myfiles.txt | gzip -c &gt;
/mydir/myfile.cpio.gz 

Thanks
Uman

Hi Managers/Gurus,
&gt; 
&gt; Currently I am backing up some files in the
&gt; following
&gt; way:
&gt; find /mypath1 /mypath2 -depth -print |cpio -ocv
&gt; |gzip
&gt; &gt;/mydir/myfile.cpio.gz (about 2gb file)
&gt; 
&gt; Now I want to run this as 
&gt; 
&gt; cat `/tmp/myfiles.txt` |cpio -ocv |gzip
&gt; &gt;/mydir/myfile.cpio.gz
&gt; 
&gt; Problem is in this method gzip doesn't work. Any
&gt; help
&gt; is appreciated.
&gt; 
&gt; Thanks
&gt; Uman
