[wp-hackers] Running several WordPress sites on the same server

[Ryan WP Mailing Lists]

That indeed is a fascinating article. Though one comment suggested there
could be security issues with the method but does not go into what they
are. From what I can tell the only issue is if one site gets hacked they
all do, which is true of WP Multisite and Wordpress.com hasn't had any
issues with that AFAIK. Plus there is the advantage of only having to
monitor one codebase for hacks.

What are your thoughts, any other security issues with this I should be
concerned about if I go down this route?
