Hello,

For what purpose is role :db used?

My web app is hosted on a server called "web-01" and the database it
uses is on server "services-01".  So, I edited my deploy.rb as:

role :web, "web-01"
role :app, "web-01"
role :db,  "services-01"

But when I ran `cap setup`, I got an authentication error when it
listed:
    servers: ["services-01", "web-01"]
and asked me to enter a password, to which I entered my password to
web-01.  (I do not have shell access to services-01.)

When I changed role :db to "web-01", setup ran without a hitch.  And
just for fun, I changed :db to point to a db server that I do have
access to, and I saw it attempt to mkdir files in web-01 as if my
rails app will reside there.

So, exactly, what is the purpose of :db?

-A.
