Hello,

Yes, this feature will be included (we hope) for the next stable
release, but the idea about how should it work is not approved yet,
remember that Elive does a big effort on making it easy to use and
specially, intuitive.

I need to do tests, but my main idea right now is this one:
- thunar (file-manager), when click on a directory to have the option
to share it
- (from the internet menus): there's an application to mount remove
directories, maybe with other features like listing actually shared
directories by the user, etc
- maybe some helpful things on the thunar feature like saying to the
user which external IP has, and where is the application to mount the
directory on the remote user

Ok... ideas about how should work and how is the easiest/handy way to
have it are welcome, since specially is something to implement these
days :)

Have a nice day
