Rumor has it that Jeremy Huntwork may have mentioned these words:

Looks good. :) Except, for the sake of accuracy, you're missing some includes:

As far as executing, I suppose you could just have the server pass
whatever text it receives from the client (except if it's in a special
format) to a system call. Of course, eventually we'd want to figure out
some authentication.
Authentication could be handled with a simple command line "--allow [insert
IPs here]" like the distccd daemon does, or were you thinking 'command line
parsing' to make sure a command like "rm /" doesn't do any actual
damage... Both (in some form) would be prudent. ;-)
