 myself instead of you William. Thanks for your input I will
 look further into it. As I said I'm not a programmer and
 was hoping that there was already an application out there
 that could be modded to suit. Further invetigation
 required.

 another way to go about this bit is slightly more complex,

 system if you so wished. Such as a beaglebone.
 
 But basically how
 this works if you have an MQTT broker running locally, with
 the MQTT subscriber( the remote beaglebone ) out in the wild
 somewhere. The MQTT protocol while technically not very
 secure. Can be made very secure if some serious thought is
 put into how you architect your complete system. MQTT works
 by using a publish, and subscribe model. So one can pretty
 much bullet proof how a publisher, and subscriber interact
 with one another. 
 
 E.G. The Broker acts as a Publisher
 and Subscriber as well as does the remote system. So the
 local, and remote system each have their respective
 Published, and subscribed values. Which makes it very hard
 for "The man in the middle" attacks, and probably
 impossible for input injection. 
 
 Here's a pretty good hackaday
 article on MQTT: http://hackaday.com/2016/05/
 09/minimal-mqtt-building-a- broker/
 
 So this is actually a part of a set
 of articles by the same person I believe. But this first
 article gives a pretty good overview of MQTT, and the
 utilities available to Linux( debian ). Technically, you
 could even write a set of shell scripts to accomplish what
 you want. But personally I'd probably rather at least
 wrap these utilities from within another high level
 language. Maybe even just use their API, and write my own
 code in C . . . YMMV.
 
 After saying all of the above
 however. You'd probably want to completely lock your
 remote and lcoal system down completely, and avoid using
 wireless or bluetooth on either end. To be the most
 secure.
