We've done so in a few of our projects. The key here is that Mapbuilder (as a standards-based client) can talk to any OGC:WMS server, for example, and MapServer (as a standards-based server) can talk to any OGC:WMS client. I think one of the reasons why Mapbuilder is demo'd with GeoServer is to illustrate Mapbuilder's WFS-T client functionality, which MapServer does not support. So keep in mind that Mapbuilder is connecting to a OGC:WMS, not MapServer per se, etc. ..Tom
