I’m planning (/ trying !!**!!) to run WPMU branch 2.7.1r1715, bbPress 1.0-Alpha-6, latest BuddyPress, r1324.

My Hosting provider won’t allow RPC calls on the same server, so I have to mount bbPress on a different domain and server.

Will it work?

Assuming, it will:

Is it better to put bbPress in the root, or in a folder (usually root/forums )?

What (apart from the cookie hash) are the issues that I’m going to face?

How would I configure the cookies?

Setup should not be any different to the case where they are on the same server besides the obvious need to change the URLs in the admin area of BuddyPress/WPMU.

You will have issues if you can’t somehow share the same user database from these servers though or at least somehow replicate that data reliably to the bbPress server.
