Just gave it a quick try :

define your adv_file dev as \\host\share[\path] in networker
and you will be about to mount it (my test server is a windows one)
and device name must be in UNC path name .
But you cannot do concurrent recovers : once you mount the volume on another
device, the device where the volume was mounted is automatically
unmounted. So, it's not concurrent volumes.

It should allow you to do "local"-like recover accross lan in way of
recovering accross storage node (and using storage node NIC).

(BTW, version must be 7.2)
