Somebody besides me an JP that's still using uucp :-).

You can certainly use ssh port forwarding to do this. Every time
I have to do something like this I have to RTFM a bit to remember
how it's done.

The easiest way to handle things like this is often to use VPN
appliances like the LinkSys BEFVP41. These make it easy to
create IPSec tunnels between systems, independent of the OS of
the machines on the private network. They're cheap, easy to
configure, and generally pretty reliable.
