Hi together,

just a side note ...

you might want to checkout 

    http://codespeak.net/svn/user/hpk/remotecode 

and perform the README steps to get some idea of how such a "remote
code" protocol basically and simply works in few lines of code.   
Actually it does quite what Armins says above (sending a new server
to a minimal server which then accepts a shell-connection etc.pp)

cheers,
