Hey guys,

I know this is a bit off topic for this list but i'm looking for some help,

We run 8 xen DomU's in a box, 4 are MISC, 2 run Exim4 and 2 run apache, We need a shared storage option to allow all e-mail and websites to be in one location. Price is an issue at this point and we cant afford a large SAN, what we were thinking is getting a NAS device like the linksys NSLU2 NAS storage device, this exports via samba.

The shared storage will be mainly READ-ONLY for reading email and websites but both exim4 domu's will be writing e-mail to the device. Has anyone done this and is anyone aware of any issues in doing this?

Cheers
