I believe this refers to having admin credentials in the replication *target* not in the *source*, so it does not address Hendrik's concern, as I understand it. > Additionally, you could use the proxy option that Randall mentioned. > There's also the _rewrite handler + a vhost for the public web site > domain.

The question raised by Hendrik is a crucial one, and is probably in the minds of many people who are afraid to commit to CouchDB because of this, so it would be great if the issue was addressed authoritatively and the question put into a FAQ. -- Luciano Ramalho programador repentista || stand-up programmer Twitter: @luciano
