OK James you piqued my intellectual stupidity switch. I"m going to try this idea (however hare-brained I think it is :), and let the list know I guess. Caveat: if i come screaming back here to the list with no hair left its all YOUR fault ;p Question: The drive all the info is on is a FAT32 30GB partition of a 60GB drive. You said i should dump all teh files into a directory (/var/www/html) yet I know they won't fit in here because my Linux partition is only 10GB total. So...is there a way to point apache or something to that drives directory & tell it to serve files from where they are now? That is: My mp3 directory is on /hdb1/mp3. Will apache be able to find/point to<?> that directory & just show users to that directory when they login? Let them d/l their files, logoff. As I cannot put all those mp3's on my linux partition thats the best idea I have. Any help? :) Thx Femme
