PAWS could be modified to display data sent via Ethernet just replace the
serial port reader with an Ethernet reader.  Not that I could do it mind
you since I don't have access to Ethernet but it should not be all that
difficult.

Clearly you would need the PAWS source code to hack up.  Please write to
me at Mt. Stromlo Observatory.
