We currently use VNC to do remote analasys.  It is cross platform, allows 
passworded access, can be viewed by several stations at once, and saves 
having to transfer the entire captured data file accross the network 
connection.  Another possibility would be to use linux at each remote, and 
use Xwindows to produce a "remote display" of a locally running process on a 
datacenter workstation.

All of the other options we have looked at require signifficant bandwidth (NFS 
mounts, ip-next-hop redirects) and have the side effect of doubling monitored 
data in most cases.
