Symbolic link over multiple servers in network?
Posted by linuxfan, 04-27-2011, 08:08 AM I have more servers in one network and i want to symbolic link one file from one server to other servers (csf.deny file so i can have autobanned bad ip's on all servers).I have cent os 5 64 bit,what's the best way to do this ?
Posted by relichost, 04-27-2011, 08:26 AM Hi CSF have a feature built in, that will distribut the contents of this file accross all your servers. LFD clustering. (http://www.configserver.com/cp/csf.html) Alternativley, make each server update a file via FTP to a website, then download it periodiclly to each server in your estate from that website. Thanks
Posted by ValcatoAdam, 04-27-2011, 08:53 AM As abtme said, CSF's built-in clustering is probably ideal. If you can't use that for some reason, putting /etc/csf/ on an NFS mount is probably the easiest way to set it up. Last edited by ValcatoAdam; 04-27-2011 at 08:53 AM. Reason: typo
