That's what were running here. It shouldn't be a problem in your case.

Hi BJ
No ... not 2 instances ... just break up the installation over 2 computers
i.e. 1st computer with dbase installed and 2nd computer with application
installed
cheers

Subject: Re: Setup with more than one computer
Clarification:
it looks like you want to run two instances of ofbiz
to the same DB.
this takes extra configuration.
FYI the apps use the web server
I think you are referring the Ecommerce side
not sure why you want to use two instances, since the backend (apps) is
ssl and 8443.
you can block that port through the fire wall if you only want intra lan
communications.
i run all behind a firewall, and both the http and https on the internet
using a firewall for ports 80 and 8443.
so the DB is protected.
I believe you can route intra lan usage through a firewall for port 8443
(apps)

Hi Fellas
The network topology I would like OFBiz setup is using more than one
computer using the following options:
1. Application Server + Dbase
2. Web Server + Application Server + Dbase
Now . I would feel confident setting up:
Option 1. (Apps + Dbase) I will be placing the Apps and Dbase between a
firewall i.e. Apps-(192.168.0.192/24) > Firewall > Dbase-
(192.168.2.100/24)
Option 2. (Web Server+ Apps + Dbase) Web Server-(192.168.1.100/24) >
Firewall > Dbase-(192.168.2.100/24) + Apps-(192.168.2.101/24)
Notice the IP Addresses and different subnet masks. The question is:
OFBiz
should be able to talk to the *dbase*, *webserver* and or *application
server* though ports only - Not relying on the same IP addressing? In
other
words, rather than relying on TCP/IP to transfer information to each
node
... or do I need to route the disparate IP addressing so that each node
can
see each other through IP addressing
Thanks in advance
Phil
