A CLI from AUX: works just fine over the modem. There are two main
problems:

1. You need to run 'cancel!', 'noreq', or 'doserr' to prevent requester
   coming up on the Amiga's screen, unless you have a VERY long mouse cable.

2. Your system will not be password protected unless you take steps to
   write a password program and invoke it from the AUX: CLI.
