My original plan was more along the lines of a simple VNC-style
client/server pair that would send xPL traffic as unencrypted TCP
packets between the two endpoints (although the server was to handle
multiple connections), with the security provided where necessary by
the underlying connection - SSH, VPN etc.
The idea of handling my own security is a bit scary to be honest,
but I see a lot of things use Blowfish, so I may give it a look
(xPLDiag first though!)
