I'd like to move our softwares to Linux + Apache (where mounting a 9p fileserver would be easy), but actually it's a Windows + IIS.

I would write a session state service for ASP.NET connecting it in 9p (using c# and the 9pc implementation linked by http://9p.cat-v.org/implementations... actually the link is broken...)

I see. Well, these are the things I have no personal experience with. Hopefully,

somebody else on this alias can help you.

If the filesystem grid work as I've understood, there would be only ONE filesystem.

So, saving session state in the grid would make it available to all web servers connected to the filesystem, allowing load balance and high availability for the web servers (when one crash, the user sessions it was handling would be available to the others web server).

So far it seems that there are no ready-made 9P-based solutions available for what

you have in mind. At least I don't know of any.

Thanks,
