6pack is implemented as a line discipline, so any tty, including a pseudo tty can be turned into a 6pack interface. So all it takes is a network connection, let's say through ssh, an application on the remote side that transfers data on the remote side between that connecton and the /dev/tty... character device to which the TNC is connected. Same thing also on the local side, just between the pseudo-tty and the filedescriptor. Pretty much a nobrainer to implement but latency could be a slight problem.
