Hey,

My friend mentioned something about this earlier but I forget what it was called.

Say I have multiple instances of the same web application on a webhosting server and instead of having 15-20 copies installed, I just want to have all of these applications run off of one copy instead, how would I do that or what would it be called?

So if I did forum hosting or something and instead of every users forum being installed upon sign up and having thousands of files being replicated every time a new user created a forum, how could I mirror the files without copying them?

Does anyone have an idea of what i'm talking about? I'm looking for what this is called.


Thanks...
