After reading the User HowTo I had the impression that you can easily have a 
server on each computer. So what is needed is some kind of discovery service 
and a KDE Server frontend. 
That server could be started on KDE startup and could be used for 
communication then. So "all" that is needed is some kind of discovery for 
LANs. But maybe I just did not understand it all.
