No there's no solution right now, it's simply catting a file to disk, so a simple solution from scratch must be written. It's just convoluted since the disk happens to live in another machine...

sharing is less simple in my opinion, but if it works it works, what technology would you pursue to accomplish that? the big disk is in a box running OS X 10.3 and the sampling machine is running Ubuntu 5.10, very bare install. I sense that NFS could do this, but i've never worked with it so i'm hesitant to do so.
