Hi,

I don't see why it should be problematic, if each daemon accesses its
own files and there are no collisions.. (you know, NFS is designed for
MULTIPLE clients accessing it) - unless you mean to run two apaches at
the same time using the same log file, for example? but why to do that?

You can use heartbeat (http://www.linux-ha.org) to make the servers
monitor each other and when one is down to do a failover and take its
resources (i.e. run apache and become the web server instead of the one
which just died).

Note that your suggested configuration doesn't sound too good, because
you have a SINGLE nfs server, which is a potential SPOF (Single Point of
Failure) - if it'll die, your whole 'server farm' would die.
(There are many ways - not all are good ofcourse - to have a highly
available NFS server as well, try to get some info in www.linux-ha.org.
