No, what I said above don't even work:

materials\... allow_from_disk+check_crc

Now everybody get disconnected with this error:

disconnect pure server : client has leaded extra file
[game]/materials/correction/zombieintro.raw. files must be removed to play
on the server

So I guess I'll have to do like an exception list with "allow_from_disk"...
