Well for security things it might actually give a less security... But good thing is that you can separate tasks - You don't need to bloat server with all kind of unneeded stuff and if something fails while setting up you can start over. If you bloat single server that is pretty much impossible. Good thing is also that some virtual servers allows makes copies and then you can play around with copy without having to destroy your running environment. -- Jani Tiainen --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.
