I wanted to double check the feasibility of remote processing..
If you have a site that you need 1 time processing on and you have it on a server where they can't give that too you...
Then you should be able to do the following with a php/mysql site yes? - Hookup remotely to the mysql server - Easily create fakedns on your own computer to make the site showup where it's not listed via real dns servers on the internet - Create virtual directorys through ssh or other means with software like SSHFS - Map apache to these virtual directory's
Can anyone confirm doing this.. the software I would be using would gallery2 which will have a high I/O read and then re-write time obviously all going through the internet and remote directory's (which may mean it's REALLY, really slow) ??
