Using python interpreter over a network

[pj]

Greetings.

I am trying to run a python script in a networked windows NT
workstation. Python is not installed in this box.

I have mapped another machine's (my win2k box) python (2.1)
installation to the PATH of this NT box.

I have set PYTHONHOME to Q:\Python   while Q: is  mapped to  
\\my_nt_box\cdrive. I also have Q:\winnt\system32 in the current path
(for python dll).

Python seems to work under the circumstances. I can run the
interpreter and do simple stuff.  But when I try to import some
modules, it says it cant find those. 'win32net' for example.  I am not
sure how to make it aware of the fact that everything is under
q:\python.

Is it a requirement that python should be installed in the local
machine? Or is there something (Env variable ? Registry ?) I can tweak
to make this work.

Appreciate your time.

cheers
