No. It needs to be implemented as a file system, not as a utility. 
Utilities already exist for getting files in and out of a GS. We're 
looking for a way to interface with servers at an OS level for use as a 
file server, just like AppleShare.

Would have to be IPv4, since the GS doesn't do IPv6 at this time. I 
mean, unless you know something I don't. :)
