Everyone, I had a similar conversation with another client a year ago. He wanted the publishing to be published 2 servers. Naturally, we would setup 2 publishing targets. However, know how CMS publish works, CMS would finish publishing to one target before beginning to publish to another target, hence creating a large publishing time window. I suggested an alternative solution. On web server #1, setup a file system watcher, on file change, copy file to server #2. This is really a choice of Information System management. Does one want to control the publishing setting from 1 system (CMS) or multiple systems (CMS + A webserver). Neil, in your case, the choice is up to you as well. 2 publishing targets or 1 publish target + a replication/cleanup process somewhere else. Best regards, -Jian
