Hi philippe, if your are lucky your linux may support NFS, the you can import diskspace from any other linux system by mount -tNFS <remote>:</diskspace> /mnt -o nolock,noatime (remote=remote computer, /diskspace= directory on the remote box) On the remote box you can compile and drop the resulting programm in to /diskspace but execute them on you target.
