On Unix systems we have used "beam up/beam out" and rcopy very  successfully, 
in addition to the Hummingbird server app for  drag-and-drop convenience.  We 
maintain all copies of all graphics on  all stations, and it has saved our 
butts more than once having redundant  copies.  It does take discipline to make 
sure that "master copies"  are archived and updated, and great care must be 
taken when using global  Unix commands.  We solve that usually by sending 
whatever modified drawings  we create immediately to one work station where 
they are 
"blown out to the  world" (some 30+ stations).  Of course with the new 
Windows platform, the  drag-and-drop convenience is built in.  There, I've said 
something nice  about the new system.
