You can do it by writing a shell script that you invoke on the server
from the client via ssh. The shell script should run dirvish on the
appropriate vault. This means your client machines have login access to
your server to invoke a root process. That can cause security problems
unless done very carefully. I don't believe dirvish offers the facility
directly, for that reason.
