I looked into RVD several months ago.  It is a large [code size] system
that does not appear to be in production use anywhere (rumored to still
be used in a UNIX host - UNIX host fashion at its birthplace, MIT).
I would suggest you consider one of the following commercial products:
	NFS;
	NetBios/TCP;
	Locus "DOS Merge".
(If my job depended on making the best choice I would choose NFS, if you
want the choice with the most future/potential choose NetBIOS/TCP)

	Best of luck, let us know how you work your problem out,

Caveat: I have been looking at the problem you describe for several months
and am not completely satisfied with any of the alternatives.
