Similar packages:

the Network Block Device server

This package contains the server process for the Network Block Device. The Network Block Device is a client/server protocol that emulates a block device (like a hard disk, a floppy, a CD-ROM, ...) over the network, thus giving the system the ability to swap over the network, or to use raw network diskspace for other purposes.

Note, however, that it is not recommended to write to a single networked block device from different clients simultaneously, since that would probably result in data loss; if you want different clients to use the same shared network resource, you don't need the Network Block Device (which, basically, is a Disk Server protocol) but something else, like Sun's Network File System (NFS), or CODA.
