Hm. Now I see that it won't help to execute the commands on the remote host. Okay, I hope that I won't forget to add this to the todo list 8-) Another alternative would be to use smbmount, but I know nothing about it. Presumably, you could then access the remote directory as if it was local, similar to NFS. (You could also encourage your colleagues to use CVS...)
