I don't know.  He doesn't say what the remote platform is.  If a platform
that X isn't already on, then yes he would.  But if the remote platform is
one where X already runs - like another Linux box - then I guess he probably
already has one.  Here's an idea ...

Hey Samuel - what OS is running on each end of this?  As in, is it from
Linux box to Linux box?  Or is it from Linux box to Windows box?
