As far as I know the multiprocessing module only works on one machine
(multi-cpu or multi-core), not across machines.

So I thought at first, but then I saw this statement in the documentation:

It is possible to run a manager server on one machine and have clients use
it from other machines (assuming that the firewalls involved allow it).

Depends. I don't know much about the multiprocessing module in 2.6,
but I have built a distributed application on Pyro.
Pyro has many advantages -- a query-able name server, GUI tools for
monitoring your setup, and remote agents. It is also rather simple in
comparison to other similar tools (*cough*twisted.pb*cough*). However,
it is essentially an RPC style system, so some people might not be too
comfortable with it. YMMV.
