Hi, thank your for your fast answer, I should have thought that more information are needed. One thing I also forgot to mention is that I need to keep a homogeneous URL layout - so even if I install an apache on the userdirserver the url must not change. All are Unix(Solaris10) Systems. So first I thought about accessing the userdirs by NFS-mounting them to the apache server. But I will run into problems here, as the apache is in a DMZ and the userdirserver in the intranet. I don't see a solution how to go through the firewall without creating a hugh gape in it. Then I thought to simply copy the userdir folders from the fileserver onto the webserver once a day or so (like creating tar files and scp them to the webserver). But I don't find this to be a very good solution. The last idea I had was to use capabilities of Solaris 10. Meaning creating a virtual zone on the userdirserver and install an apache there. The userdirs are going to be loopback read-only mounted from the global zone into this apache zone. Then I would use ReverseProxying on the main apache server to integrate the userdirs. But I want to have security in mind as well and I don't feel so confident with Solaris 10 zones yet. If I do sth. wrong I would give someone access to the server with all our useraccounts on and to our intranet. That's why I am asking here if someone has an idea what would be a good solution.
