Michael- I've worked with a shop in the past that used one development server successfully (with Perforce) bu giving each developer their own directory on the server to each put their own copy of the code. This helps in cases where you may have complicated server software that you don't want to instal on everyone's desktops, but still means someone's setting up the code a bunch of times in a bunch or directories. In that case, each developer had their own port on the webserver mapped to their copy of the code. this let people play in their own protected little sandboxes, but still on one central server. Might be food for thought in your case. However, for the record, I wholeheartedly agree with the recommendation to consider moving to a local development model. If you are brave, you can even tinker with that idea without making the whole team do it. Just set things up on your own local computer and give it a week or two of working that way to see if it's really as hard as you think. You may be surprised. -Cameron -- Cameron Childress -- p: 678.637.5072 im: cameroncf facebook <http://www.facebook.com/cameroncf> | twitter<http://twitter.com/cameronc> | google+ <https://profiles.google.com/u/0/117829379451708140985> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:354198 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
