This doesn't sound like a very good design to me. Sounds like you are
trying to use a distributed computing concept. I would make one machine the
webserver to handle input/output for the user and set up a process on the
webserver to distribute the files in the background to the appropriate
compute machine. After processing, have each compute machine deposit the
results back to the webserver.

P.S. It is generally not a good idea to post to several lists like you have
done here. So far, this question sounds like it probably best fits on
beginners-cgi.
