Additional thoughts:

I do not have digital modes (aside from CW) operational yet; it should 
be possible, but it is low priority for me right now.

the forum is here: http://www.remoterig.com/forum/index.php, and there 
is the yahoo group (not a lot of activity; most seems to be on the 
forum) as well. (remoterig at yahoogroups.com).

I should have mentioned that I strongly recommend setting it up on your 
internal intranet first so that it is convenient to debug, then setting 
up the IP forwarding for your router at the radio location, etc. and 
using the internet for the remote.  It helps to separate the issues 
nicely, making debug go faster.
