I recommend using pg_receivexlog.  It has two important advantages over
archive_command:  1) You can have multiple instances of pg_receivexlog
running and copying things to different places.  This is complicated to
do correctly with archive_command.  2) pg_receivexlog will fsync the
files it writes.  This is also complicated to do correctly with
archive_command.
