One more question if that's ok. If i setup another separate Hudson master instance on my server where i want my ruby scripts to run, should that work as well?
I tried this as I've read online that having a master hudson linux instance and a slave Windows instance could be quite problematic. I've tried with the master Hudson on Windows where i want my ruby scripts to run and it does execute my ruby (watir) scripts but behaves as if if can't open an IE window interactively. Thanks!
