Have you looked at / tried: UNFS3 ( http://unfs3.sourceforge.net/ ). Last time I tried it, it worked remarkably cleanly on a vserver and was a joy to use.

Samba is userspace only at the server end and would be an option. WebDAV via Apache would also be possible but TBH I'm not sure what client support is like. Beyond that you could abuse things like SSH or FTP, either with the appropriate LUFS / FUSE set up on the clients or just using the I/O slaves in KDE / equiv in GNOME. HTH.
