Hi Andi,
Well, the good (hopefully?) news is that the FreeRDP client does provide for mapping of remote devices, and something like HDD certainly applies. I haven't personally tried this having been sort-of eyeballs deep into making the application-level RDP confgured and tested, but I'll give this a shot within the next couple of days.
I am going to venture a guess that if the mapping does work well enough, it'll probably be more of that seamless storage type of a "warm-hole" (ha ha, sorry couldn't resist the Space Geek temptation here) connection. I'm not sure that an application like FF would be able to use that, after all, it has to start up on the HOST side first I think.
Does this setup allow the "remote application" to store data on the local (read JFS) drive? Without lan shares (without samba)? ...
