zm4ms is a windows only app that can accept upto 36 cameras (currently) it is basically a glossy front end that allows live viewing and playabck from multiple zm servers (upto 36 cams).
The best source of info in the forum topic
http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5105
but this has info on all the previous versions as well as the current beta. Id personally try the beta first as its the version i actually use and have no problems with, but there is also an old version there that is classed as non beta.
There is no documenation for it yet (im hoping someone else will write this as im not very good at writing manuals)

It wonat actually link your servers together but will give the operator the impression that they are all on the same machine (as long as you keep your times synced).
