Thanks for the tip about X forwarding with ssh. Saving memory and bandwidth would be good. This is new to me and looks very promising.
I just have a few more howtos to read. Also, working without a chroot would be a lot easier so I might switch. I don't really need the encryption or compression offered by ssh and vpn while just on my lan except I can see how that is important when a Galileo is controlling the floodgates over the internet. Good thing this is only a learning exercise.
