I've been asking about a similiar thing -- I guess it's on George's todo list
:-) If I could somehow type:

prime.ini=\\primeserver\%i

...and it would look for prime.ini in \\primeserver\194.248.45.42 (or whatever),
that would increase my school's throughput by... oh, say 60-70%. ;-)

30 here, but yes, I know the problem.
