It is possible to change the serialization used by Pyro

As I said earlier, I would not use XML. Just an example - I need to be able to transfer image files, word and excel documents. How silly it would be to base64encode a binary file, then put it into an XML.

Fair enough.

In that case, here's 5 suggestions:

- use simple file copying from a mounted network drive
- use http (web server)
- use ftp
- use scp
- use rsync

Why wouldn't one of these work for you? Did I miss something in your original requirements? All of the above high level protocols are very efficient in concurrently transferring files from a server to multiple clients.
