That's a good one :-)

The foudation demo uses a simple symlink just under your catalog root,
called 'images', which points to the actual image directory under your
http documents root, to allow the catalog to save images from uploads.

In your case, you'll need this link to point to the images directory on
the machine that runs the http server. I imagine this could be done with
one of the several network file system protocols that are available for
*nix; the best choice for you would depend upon your particular
situation, I guess. I am not an expert in this particular area, but I
know NFS is used quite a bit...
