Abstract
The bane of achieving a scalable distributed file sharing system is the centra-
lized data system and single server oriented file [sharing] system. In this pa-
per, the solution to the problems in a distributed environment is presented.
Thus, inability to upload sizeable files, slow transportation of files, weak secu-
rity and lack of fault tolerance are the major problems in the existing system.
Hence, the utmost need is to build a client-
server network that runs on two or
more server systems in order to implement scalability, such that when one
server is down, the other(s) would still hold up the activities within the net-
work. And to achieve this
reliable network environment, LINUX network
operating system is recommended among others as a preferred platform for
the synchronization of the server systems, such that every user activity like
sending of internal memos/mails, publication of academic articles, is repli-
cated; thereby, achieving the proposed result. Hence, Scalable Distributed File
Sharing System provides the robustness required to having a reliable intranet.
