Hi all folks!
Its my first message to the mailing list, so excuse me if Im posting on wrong place. I have worked with Apache since 4 years ago, almost always with version 2.X. So I have a little experience with this great web Server. Lately, Im introducing NAS tecnologies with free software like Openfiler to reduce the load of local hard drives. My last experiment is: One NAS running on IP A One VPS (Centos 5.3 under Virtuozzo Linux) with Apache running on IP B VPS has a mapped folder to NAS (IP B) and Apache is configure to work with this mapped folder called /data. The performance is good until now but I have a very big doubt about mod_deflate and mod_expires. Maybe Im totally wrong about that and I apologize, but I think that, mod_deflate and mod_expire dont running when data is not local. I do some Basic test: - one .htaccess on DocumentRoot with rules about deflate and expires - directly on Virtual host configuration No one with success. When I run Yslow Firefox Plugin, it dont detects compression or expire. So the only difference with this experiment (NAS+Apache) and the other host of my net (Apache+Local Drives) is NAS. Maybe is NAS the cause of my problem? Or is not related? Thanks to all! Rubén Ortiz More info: Apache version: Server version: Apache/2.2.3 Server built: Jul 14 2009 06:02:39 SO: Centos 5.3
