[Opensim-users] Anybody using a configuration where separate standalones still use the same user/inventory data?

[Vanish]

Hi Justin.

I used / am using something like that and experimented with it in the past, especially when hypergrid was divided among different versions. At first I tried using several opensim installations (one running 0.6.9, another 0.7) access the same db at the same time; when that didn't work too well, I just used the one db and would run whatever version I would need at the time to go to the place in hypergrid I want to go to. Nowadays I'm using mostly 0.7.1 and 0.7 & 0.6.9 on occasion. I never had any problems that way other than avatar appearance wasn't persistent between versions.

This wouldn't be a classic 'serverless' grid [1] since the standalones wouldn't be aware of each other's presence (as 
they wouldn't persist data to the grid service). You could login to any particular standalone with the same user and 
inventory but you couldn't see the others on the map or teleport to them.
