Also - you'll need a way to manage Squeak remotely.

I recommend either using the Squeak VNC server (should be on SqueakMap?) 
which many people have had success with, or the REPLServer which is a 
telnet server that runs simple Smalltalk commands - an old version is on 
SqueakMap, or I've made a nicer version at 
http://www.squeaksource.com/SecureSqueak/REPL-mvdg.13.mcz.
