ssh commands

[Robert Canary <phantom ohiocounty net>]

I am trying to pass the following on a commandline via ssh
echo -e "this is a test\ntwo=2" > /tmp/sshtest; cat /tmp/sshtest

on the console commandline I get.
this a test
two=2

However, if pass it through the commadline on a ssh I get
this is a testtwo=2

I have tried double slashes and that will not work iether.  The
commandline works on both machines fine while at the console, but I
cannot get the <NL><RT> on when going through a ssh.

anyone know why?
