Thank you for the speedy response.

I grabbed the SAGE 2.0 Ubuntu binary and installed it on a virtual
machine.

I understand better what is going on.  SAGE in notebook mode
runs a server on port 8000.  You connect a web browser to that
port and enter commands.

I can configure a computer that blocks external connections to
port 8000.  So that SAGE can only be accessed from within that
host.  And then I can provide access via ssh (with X forwarding
enabled) access to the grad student.

Are there any plans to make SAGE more multiple-user-friendly?
Such that each instance of SAGE only modifies the invoker's
files?  Or perhaps a locking mechanism so that only one person
at a time can use SAGE?
