ssh -Y FQDN, forwards the x stuff too. You can even run LCNC from your armchair that way if motor power is off. Sorta, depends on homing config etc if you can cut warm air with the motor power off, which I have always setup as a separate switch. So I can on the 4 axis mill, but not of the lathe as it has real home switches. > Although saying that, I'd probably work on my CAD and CAM in the house > and then walk it out w/ a USB stick. Seriously that is what the ssh -Y session is for, and also what NFS is for. Surprisingly easy to setup and it Just Works(TM) HOWEVER, I also have a decent router, reflashed with dd-wrt, between my local network and the cable modem. No one has gotten past it in the 5 or 6 years I've had it in service. > If I could SSH in, I could just > send it that way...

I have 2 strands of cat5 running across the back yard, one of which was 6 years old in 2010 when a 112 mph direcho came by and knocked down most of the bigger trees, all my privacy fence, + took some of my roof and generally made a heck of a mess of the whole neighborhood. That now faded blue cable is still there, swinging in the breeze and working perfectly on a 100 mbit circuit. I haved no clue how a neighbors yard building, which went by 6 or 7 feet up in the air, took some guttering off the house and smashed into a pine tree just downwind of the house & 12 feet up, leaving damages that can still be seen, managed to miss taking out that cable.
