It's always worth seeing what wine under CentOS can do, but I wouldn't get my
hopes up that it will fill the shoes of windows because of lots of
compatibility problems. Still, it's worth a shot.

If using a file system for the file storage isn't mandatory then I would go
with an rdbms such as Postgres with the file stored in a blob field of a table.
If the systems are in the same location and can use a shared Filesystem then I
would look into getting a netraid scsi card or something
A program that acts as an interface between the rdbms and whatever wants the
files can be constructed easilly. Personally I would look into using java to
create an applet that uses jdbc to get the files from the rdbms and then uses
regular java libraries to ftp it. Stream to stream
Eclipse? Jbuilder?

My problem with mysql just stems from watching how it has developed from the
early days. It has a sleepycat core (nothing wrong with that), but the added
functionality to make it an rdbms revolves around whatever is popular at the
time and quick to do rather than what do other databases do.
You're right. Pgsql isn't my only favorite db solution. I'm running MS SQL
2005 express edition because shavlik will use either access or SQL server for
its datastore and I don't trust access at all and never will. Sleepycat is
also good for applications that don't need a full rdbms. There
