Can you not just use NFS? Surely you can find an NFS client for OS X
somewhere.

The other thing you could possibly do is use WebDAV. You'd need to fire up
Apache with DAV enabled on the YDL machines. Lord knows how you'd script it
unless you can mount the volumes.

Finally, you should look at setting up netatalk on the YDL boxen. That might
get you where you want to go most quickly.

Caveat: I'm a Win/Solaris/Linux/x86 guy with lots of experience. I'm a total
Mac noob.
