Hi there,

 

We have a pair of servers each one of which will be running WS_FTP
server (to replace the buggy Microsoft Windows 2000 FTP server that's
already there).

 

The FTP site FQDN will be a VIP that could be directed to either of the
two web servers. We need to set it up in such a way that both machines
work with the same set of files, so their top directory should ideally
be a UNC path.

 

The problem is I can't seem to get WS_FTP server to recognise a UNC path
- it complains with the following error message:

 

"Only local fixed drives can be used for a Host's Top Directory!" (the
exclamation is a nice touch, like only a fool would want to be doing
this)

 

Is there a way to do this, to get two or more servers to "see" the same
set of files?

 

TIA,

Chris
