ftp: pipe doesn't work


I've installed the inetutils package and am running the ftp command that 
was included in it. I tried to ftp the output of a piped command using the 
| as the first character of the file name and got the following error...

ftp>  put '|tar cvf install.sh install.zip' test.tar
ftp: local: '|tar: No such file or directory

Is the pipe mechanism not implemented in cygwin's ftp?
