Thanks! The pointer to RawScreen is just what I was looking for. In case anyone is interested, I'm doing the samba stuff with jcifs (feel lucky @ google to find it) -- a Java implementation of the samba protocol... It's slick and fits so nice & easy into the Turbine framework.

Hi Derek, You could write a sublclass of RawScreen that sucks the file in via the SMB protocol (possibly using a custom InputStream) and squirts it down the ServletOutputStream of the response one byte array at a time (ie: data.getResponse().getOutputStream()).
