Used to do that - heaps of problems when using multiple machines and multiple users. http-replicator insulates you from that. It also allows you to remove nfs if you dont need it for anything else - also simplifies and makes the system (all machines) more reliable. nfs is ok in its place, but it is certainly not secure or trouble free!
