Arrgh! This was covered just a few days ago -- even then, its in the
Frequently Asked Questions list which should be consulted before posting!
Even better, the bourne (/bin/sh) man pages!

use process > stdoutfile to redirect only stdout
    process 2> stderrfile to redirect only stderr
    process > stdoutfile 2> stderrfile to redirect both separately
    process > stdoutanderrfile 2>&1 to redirect both together

                                                               __  ///
