I like this, because it allows for authentication.  If RPCP is based on
HTTP, you can either do the spiffy HTTP authentication, but even if not,
you can at least put a password in the URI:

	rcpc://fred:wilma@xxxxxxxxxxx/eth0

If you're not sure why authentication is important for this protocol,
you can stop following this thread now.  :)
