How difficult would it be to have a mySQL box on a intranet just running Mysql and the other box running webservices? Is this a good way to go about this. Saving on the server load that the current server has.

How difficult would that be to set up?

It's actually very simple... just install MySQL on the new server and move your database there.... then grant permissions for remote connections... edit your admin/config.php file and change the server from "localhost" to "your.server.name" and you're all set.

BTW, these forums are running this way... one server for apache/php and another dedicated for MySQL.
