You said you're already using scp to move things around; I think that's as good as it's going to get if you don't want to share distfiles. It's not as easy as just bypassing the fetch restriction. Neither the ebuild nor portage know where the upstream tarball is; the only thing in the ebuild is a link to the webpage. If you can settle on one machine to offer up its own distfiles folder, you might be able to overlay that onto each machine with UnionFS. Multiple DISTDIRs would also work but don't seem to exist. There was a patch way back in 2003: > http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_4c28fe3b3ff086d022734f20c3aca9a0.xml
