Hello,
Our website sits on several servers and uses a load balancer. We are using MySQL for the forum - which ofcourse sits on one server and all the website servers should go to it. Does JFOrum have to use a local database or it can use a remote database on another server?
Meaning, can we install the forum and several servers and they will all still use the same database (and therefore display the same community and messages) or each server has to have it's own SQL?
Thanks,
Eytan.

Yes, you can. Just edit the file jforum-custom.conf / database/mysql/mysql.properties on all servers and set the database settings.
