Of course if I make a whonking huge Debian NSLU2 dump space it will use SMB to share across network. and then If I have one transportable external for copying data - this method would work great as all data there will be meant to be Public (not locked by access rights)

320Gb drive and an external enclosure for about $110.  I got the 'one
