Title: Cffile and clustering

I know this is not strictly a Spectra question, but....

I am clustering a spectra app.  I have the site mirrored
and am using strictly client variables.  both servers are
hitting the same databases.  Everything appears to be
working correctly.  I have one problem.  CFFILE.

The site allows a user to upload images.  This was fine
when there was one server to deal with.  Now, I have to
save the file to two or more servers with the same upload.

I see two main problems. 
A. saving to a network share
I think this can be accomplished by running cf under an
account that can access all machines in the cluster
(not the system account).

B. Making sure that the file name is the same accross all
servers.
This seems to be the trickier part, because of course this
filename is going into the database along with a relative
path to the images directory.

Any ideas?

Has anyone run into the same problem?  What did you find
to be the best strategy for scalability and manageability?

Thank you.
