When I began running a web server, I was trying to find a place to put my web files. Looking in the filesystem hierarchy standard, I noticed the "/srv" directory. This looked fine, so I put my stuff there.
Then later I notice everybody putting their web files in "/var/www", as this seems to be the standard. But the "/var" directory is full of logs and print spoolers and...I dunno, it just seems weird...like sticking my web site in a temp directory.
Likewise I share my network files in /srv/files.
Is it terribly dumb to put my web sites in /srv/www instead of /var/www? What about shared network files? Where do you guys put these things?
