Well, technically, you could do it. You could network the two
together,
and then map a network path to the files on the other server. I don't
know
what advantages this would really give someone, though...

I told him that support for PHP was compiled into Apache and that it
would be impractical. I asked if he wanted the DB on another box. I
asked if he wated the scripts on another box. I am quite sure that there
is no particular logic behind the request as I have not received any
answers. If he tells me more I'll let you know.
