Remember, though, that we're basically talking a 25 MHz 68LC040 with a 230.4kbps throughput. VNC on that would be astoundingly slow. That's one big reason why I haven't done it yet. Plus, VNC requires IP, and the only IP solution that works over LocalTalk is MacIP. And _that_ requires me to have a bridge between MacIP and TCP/IP around somewhere...

So it's not a trivial matter.

SSH sounds good, but there are not Mac OS (prior to OS X) SSH _servers_ primarily because the Mac does not have a CLI! So SSH is probably out. Good old file sharing is good enough to know if the STB will boot (if it shows up on the network, it's booted), but that won't tell you anything else about the STB.

Peace,
