yeh, that had ocurred to me, and may be a good solution Tony. The only thing that worried me was not knowing (ie having to research..) whether that would cause any significant overhead on the image server. It's not like it's an under spec'd machine, but the point of course is to have as small a server load as possible -- so we dont need to start dropping aditioonal boxes in too soon. I run nfs at home and we make good use of it on the local network where the actual application is for shared files under the laod balancer, but this would be another data center entirely. It may be that it's a trivial thing, the reason ive not done it is Im just not 100% sure on it is all, whereas simply scp/sftp'ing files into the image server dir is about as simple as it gets right? -- Nick Wilson http://performancing.com/user/1 -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
