    search for USB over IP. It exists and it works but you lose real-time capabilities of USB and some devices may not work. It work in a way that it packs USB packets and send them over TCP connection estabilished between PCs. AT univerzity we used it as part of embedded course for generating fake devices (emulators) visible to "remote" system (localhost) as an real devices and it was possible to develop linux-drivers for these "real" USB devices.
