Salvatore Guarino	Tuesday 02 December 2008 2:53:07 am I have a webserver with Exponential with high traffic of images an swf files . I need to put these files on another web server with a wide band, but I want to mantain the core of Exponential on current server. There is a way to move only the /var (or /var/storage) directory? For a static site, a good idea should be to use the mod_rewrite of apache, but with Exponential I need to sync the remote var directory with local changes. Maybe using mod_rewite to redirect /var urls and rsync to sync a local var directory with a remote one should be an efficent solution... Any idea or suggest? Thx in advance!
