Running Mac OS X? That information would be useful in answering your 
question...

It is pretty easy to write a script that transfers a scene file to a 
remote machine using scp, runs POV-Ray remotely via ssh, and then 
retrieves the generated image. You could also create a makefile to 
handle multiple files, transmitting only those that were modified. You 
could also do something similar with rsync, something that I plan on 
experimenting with.
