perl -> ssh?

[Robert L. Harris]

  I'm working on a script and in the pre-planning process hit some walls.
I can do a "ssh $host cat /etc/hosts" and read the input into an array.  I
then want to modify the array and write /etc/hosts back out on $host.

  What's a good way to do this?  

print @Array `ssh host > /etc/hosts` doesn't seem a good idea or to work
for that matter.

Thoughts?
