I agree there's no problem with installing the manager application in each virtual host. I just don't want to do this because I don't want to publish this context to anyone, even with credentials. I would be ready to this on our production server if I could restrict manager context access to some IP adresses (127.0.0.1 for exemple). ==> Is it possible? (if not, what about thinking of this in future release?)
