Hmmm, I don't recognize this command either, but if I might ask, if
you are remote then why the need for hotplugging?  If you are remote
doesn't this preclude the ability to insert new hardware and have udev
work its magic?

And, if this is the case, won't you need to load any kernel modules
via modprobe regardless?
