This has been discussed about a month ago. Suggest some Google groups
searches.

One approach is to use VNC

OSXvnc on the Mac Mini
Chicken of the VNC on the Powerbook

Timbuktu is also a possibility.

I think the trick is getting it all configured first, which will require
a keyboard, mouse, and monitor for that initial activity.
