Hi Kirk, it looks pretty ok from a first glimpse. Some outdated stuff in there, but you'll be able to sort it out. There are 2 nml's included with emc2 which help you set up remote GUI functionality.
There is one issue I want to raise here: opening ngc files. For this to work both the GUI and the remote emc2 need to access the same files & dirs. The best way to accomplish this is to mount the remote dir locally using something like smbmount (through smb/CIFS), or nfsmount. The other way to do this is by running ssh with X forwarding. (you connect to the emc2 machine, run emc2, and the display gets forwarded through the ssh connection to the client machine). I think there's stuff describing this in the wiki.
