Is there any guide or info related to how to use ArmoryDB with a remote latest version bitcoind?
I haven't used armory in a while now, so anything i say here can be wrong/outdated, but since nobody else seems to be answering you, i'll give it a shot.
IF i'm not mistaking, armory isn't using bitcoind's interface directly, it's merely using it's data files. So, i don't think there is a way to connect armory to a remote running bitcoin node directly.
It *might* be possible to export bitcoind's data folder as an nfs mount on one machine, and mount it on a second one... I haven't tried this, so i don't know if it would work.
