Can Apache Read from a SMB Mount?
Just like it says: Can I config Apache to read from a SMB mount? I've already tried pointing Apache to the directory (/Volumes/Mount/Dir/Site), but I'm getting permissions errors.

Re: Can Apache Read from a SMB Mount?
This may sound stupid, but did you check the permissions?
Also, did you set up:
Code:
<Directory "/Volumes/Mount/Dir/Site"> Options Indexes etc etc Allow from all </Directory>
That kind of a thing?
They say that the most secure computer is the one not connected to the internet.
That's why security experts recommend Telstra BigPond.

Re: Can Apache Read from a SMB Mount?
I've already tried configging apache. The issue is that the SMB mount is owned by my user account and no amount of permissions changing causes it to be allowed to be read by Apache.

Re: Can Apache Read from a SMB Mount?
You must either configure Apache to run as you (probably not good), or you must set up the SMB mount such that it is readable by either www or everybody.
