Hi, I have an inherited web app that works like this.
Machine A, Sco Unix, NFS exported directory, only internal IP address Machine B, RH Linux, mounted NFS directory from Machine A, two IP's internal & external, apache, perl, etc The web app, runs a perl script which, creates some files in the mounted directory and then runs via rsh a command on the Sco Unix server which uses these files. It then creates the html output for the app, returns to the calling perl script which reads the html output in the shared directory and outputs it back via apache. My question, in my experience NFS is not the quickest program around. Will it be faster to use say LWP or Net::ftp or similar to put and get the files in question than writing and reading from the NFS exported/mounted directory or shouldn't I worry?
