    We are doing batch script for backup. The script supportly should show
    backup messages on monitor screen and also on log file. I test the script
    and look like "tee" does NOT put screen messages to file.

    my backup script are:

    for i in `cat /home/backup/lvdir`
    do
    /usr/sbin/backup -0 -u -f /dev/rmt1.1 $i |tee -a /tmp/backup.log
    echo "* \n" >>/tmp/backup.log
    echo "* End of backup file system: $i \n" >>/tmp/backup.log
    echo "********************************** \n" >>/tmp/backup.log
    echo "* \n" >>/tmp/backup.log
    done

    Thanks.
