A simple thing, but it took me a while to track it down again... it's possible to run distcc over an SSH connection (instead of using the daemon) by prefixing entries in your host list with either '@' or 'user@' . One could read the linked docs, but it would be nice to have a one-liner or so in the Gentoo guide mentioning the option. Reproducible: Always

Look at line four of the topmost sample config; it has the @ prefix, and several notes telling the user to read man distcc and some other documentation. However, I did include another phrase to read the manpage specifically for running distcc over SSH. That is a neat trick. :) Fixed in CVS.
