Does anyone know of a module for postgres that can do metadata management in 
 postgres but actual storage of binary objects in filesystem ?
Not really using Postgres large object but want to just do the 
metadata management with postgres. Example, need to store 
file name/size/directory/drive/node in postgres but the actual file in a 
filesystem.
Also utilities that will all to do file rename (and metadata rename) within 
a single transaction. Similarly file delete or file copy as well.
Also maybe webdav or ftp extensions to do get/put from web front. (the 
metadata would be from postgres and actual object from filesystem)

This sounds like a typical exercise and don't want to reinvent if the code 
is already out there.

many thanks ! -AJ
