This could be either SSH or a plain direct connection, which is acceptable on a LAN. A simple way to test the latter is with ‘socat’, something along the lines of what I described at: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2015-02/msg00680.html It would be great if you could check whether something like this works for you. Then we could also have built-in support for that in the daemon and clients, so that it’s more convenient. Thanks, Ludo’.
