for the time being, probably start a server process and have each person 
start an ssh tunnel from the server socket back to their local machine 
and connect to the port on your local machine. in the future I'll be 
adding a tiny bit more code to netsync to let it run on plain file 
descriptors (rather than always using sockets), then you should be able 
to use ssh as a more "direct" transport.
