Hi,

Since the author site and public site will be hosted in two differenct hosting 
environment, the clustering approach is finally dropped. But I managed to setup 
author instance as a subscriber of the public instance (for forum workspace 
only). It looks fine based on some very basic testing. I posted my 
configuration steps below and hope to hear some thoughts from your guys 
regarding any concern about this approach (security or stability).

Thanks in advance.

1. Generate security keys for Public instance:
   1.1 In 'Configuration' app, change 'Server -> admin' to "true". This will 
activate the key generation function on 'Public' instance.
   1.2 Launch 'Activation Tools' app through 'Tools->Activation Tools'. Click 
'Generate New Key' button to create a new Private/Public key pair for the 
public instance.
   1.3 Go back to 'Configuration' app, change 'Server-> admin' back to "false".

2. Config Author instance as a subscriber on Public instance:
   2.1 In 'Configuration' app, config Author site as a subscriber of public 
site on 'Server->activation->subscribers' node.
   2.2 Under 'Server->activition->subscribers->[Author Subscriber 
Node]->subscriptions', config URIs of the data/content to synch back to author 
instance.
   
3. Setup the public keys for Author and Public instance:
   3.1 Copy Author instance generated public key to Public instance:
      3.1.1 Open '[Magnolia Author Instance Root 
Folder]/WEB-INF/config/default/magnolia-activation-keypair.properties'. Copy 
the public key value.
      3.1.2 On Public instance, open 'Configuration' app. Paste the public key 
value to 'Server->publicKey'.
   3.2 Copy Public instance generated public key to Author instance:
      3.2.1 Open '[Magnolia Public Instance Root 
Folder]/WEB-INF/config/default/magnolia-activation-keypair.properties'. Copy 
the public key value.
      3.2.2 On Author instance, open 'Configuration' app. Paste the public key 
value to 'Server->publicKey'.
