# This builds bitcoind on remote machine and starts it. It then forwards the RPC port so you use bitcoin-cli locally.
# Doesn't work with QT. Only works if remote and host architecture match (otherwise compile bitcoin-cli locally or cross compile it).

# Usage:
# * clone bitcoin into e.g. ~/dev-remote/bitcoin on the remote server
# * CONFIGURE=1 ../   
#   (set CONFIGURE=0 to skip ./autogen.sh and ./configure)
