Oh - I don't think that will work. I don't know of anyone doing such a thing.
I suggest you set up a tree configuration (although a circuit here or there
wouldn't break things as the LDM does do duplicate detection). I think that
will work much better than having all sites feed from a single server, and it's
really not overly difficult to manage - we do it here all the time! :) If each
site fed only 5 sites you'd only need a tree that's three levels deep. Plus,
sites could failover if they lost their primary feed. Just a thought...
