ssh -Y -l user etc,etc

[Pat Kane]

Where are "emc"  and  "ubuntu machine".
What does emc stand for?

I think 150' of CAT5 is okay (assuming you mean feet and not meters)
   see:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_5_cable
but make sure the connectors at each end are solid.
Are ends commercial or hand-made?
