I think you could do one-machine-one-file with rsh/ssh, like cat file.wav | ssh -c 'flac -c -' [EMAIL PROTECTED] > file.flac or something like that. You won't get a total_samples value in the STREAMINFO block that way though; for that you'll have to flac onto an NFS-mounted dir or something. multi-machines-one-file takes a true distributed encoder, which is a project by itself.
