A web hosting company hosting 10's of thousands of domains might be a good example. Think about tech support needing to change an entry. Or automatic provisioning of domains, or parking domains. This is a lot easier to do with a DB backend. Of course you could store it all in a db and then write some scripts to dump the flat files and cycle the server. Doubt that would be very practical though. > > -- > Ed Wilts, RHCE > Mounds View, MN, USA > mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx > Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program > > -- > redhat-list mailing list > unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
