Hi Sherry,

Currently we have a split install with our application server
separate from our web server, both running Mac OS X 10.5.8. We write
files from our applications to the web server through an NFS mount.
Although this does work, we have had issues with it and see many
errors in the system logs. I'm looking for a better solution. Do
others do this? If so, do you use NFS successfully, FTP, other
solutions?
We are using an NFS mounted, shared volume (not the web server, but a
similar idea). We are using LDAP to controls the users and
permissions for the processes reading and writing to this. It is
mostly OK, but we sometimes "lose" the mount. It looks to me like it
times out after a period of inactivity or something. Doing an "ls" on
the mounted volume or looking at it in Finder seems to restore it.
Looking at it from a WO app does not have the same restorative
effect. I don't know why. Recently, I added code to run a shell
doing an ls command if the WO app got an IO error. Hacky yes, but no
errors since then. It has not been long enough that I am sure it is
working. AFP is another option, but is slower than NFS, there might
be other issues too.
