This allows you to screenshare to a rM that is not on the same subnet as the rmview client. rM's UDP broadcast messages are obtained from the rM device itself. * autoinstall changes to get a decent netcat (nc.traditional) * replace ChallengeReaderProtocol with ssh+netcat

It's a little concerning that there is no way to verify the validity of the "traditional unix netcat" binary you included in this PR. I would not be comfortable myself merging this as-is, and I'd instead want to have the source of |

Not sure if others are interested in this, but I wanted to screen share with a rM device on a separate subnet that could not directly receive the UDP broadcasts from the rM.

Unfortunately the version of netcat already on the rM is hobbled, so I added the logic to install a traditional unix netcat. Do with it what you will.
