Mostly true ... only NFS is NOT dfs, each server there has separate files, exported with different prefixes (/tas-5, /tas-3 ... ok, there is also /tas/ which serves a common namespace from two servers, but it is still not dfs). What I want: :) 1. I have to distinct namespaces and two redirectors for those spaces. 2. Problem is they are both running on the same machine. 3. I want the redirector on the standard port number to blindly forward all requests for the other namespace to another redirector on the same machine. Does this makes sense now?
