a) do I just transfer the current redo file from my primary to my standby and then recover
b) is it possible to locate these redo files on another server via NFS?
c) is it even really possible to recover online redo log files on a standby database?
a) You never transfer current redo log files anywhere because they are being written into. You transfer archived redo logs.
b) There is no reason to make online redo logs available via NFS . It serves no purpose.
c)Standby database does not need online redo logs. Only archived redo logs are being transferred and applied to standby database. If standby database activated, it will create new (own) set of online redo logs.

I did not want to discourage you from asking a questions, besides I am not a moderator and have no power to restrict you, but I would ask you next time:
a) Find out as much as you can on your own
b) Ask your questions in a way that everybody can understand

Thanks
