After reading many posts about GT licensing, it seems as though I am
allowed a test install on the same domain or path.

My question is:
Am I better off using a subdomain (dev.domain.com), or
simply another directory in my cgi-bin?

I have just set up a test install using a subdomain, but am questioning my logic.

Live install is at domain.com/cgi-bin/links/admin
Dev install is at dev.domain.com/cgi-bin/links/admin (var/www/dev/cgi-bin/links/admin)

It seems to me that I would probably be better off just using:
Live install: domain.com/cgi-bin/links/admin
Dev install: domain.com/cgi-bin/links_dev/admin
with static paths of...
Live: domain.com/static
Dev: domain.com/static_dev

I am waffling because I am unable to protect the entire subdomain, keeping it private.
I can of course protect domain.com/cgi-bin/links_dev and static_dev

My other concern has to do with Mod Rewrite...
I would like to be able to use basically the same set of rules for dev as for live site.
It would probably be easy to duplicate a couple lines in my rules, and
add the dev urls to existing rules, allowing only 1 set for live and dev.

Any thoughts on the matter are appreciated.
