I don't recommend that - I've tried this setup and it's awfuly slow  
over Fast Ethernet network and two quite powerful machines and I  
couldn't finish 300GB backup in 4 days!. The same backup over ssh with  
rdiff-backup --server happily finishes in one night (where server is  
now old Pentium IV).
