Not really, however it's been discussed on the list now and again - I think for the most part, most agree it is just a bad idea, however, I suppose you could run it on a separate vm instance, depending on your shop/site. Here, I will always run it on external hardware, as we run 99% virtual/ESX so putting in the cluster im monitoring would just be a counter-productive. :-P Cheers, James ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
