The example showed 2 'remote' repositories (for apache) as does my local install, so that's why I was thinking that it was possible.
And the scenario you gave of a company wide repository is precisely why I was asking. I work at a very large/ global company and my group creates web based apps, but in PHP running on Apache. I'm trying to make the case that we should move to Java/Geronimo so that we can create the code and post it to the repository. Then the other areas could come and get it whenever they wanted; perhaps to a test instance first, then their prod server could pick it up from there when it was approved. I haven't tried it either; Networking is my kryptonite and gettin it runnin in VirtualBox is gonna kill me. :) I wanna workthrough/ understand farming/load balancing/clustering too. Thanks!
