Is there a way to configure php to use a database for sessions rather than a text file. I have a server farm and want the session files to be accessible to all machines in the cluster. I can have the session file on nfs but I am worried about file locking. I have read tutorials on how to set session.save_handler = user and then each script configures their seesion variables and connections, but I want this to be transparant to my users. I do not want users to have to change anything in their scripts.
