Can I use XAMPP installed Moodle on a network?
Yes, of course. There are some limitations though. This installer was never designed for a production site, so it has some issues with hardware resources. The more people that are on line simultaneously, the greater the demands, obviously. However, the memory requirement for the server increases dramatically and therefore uses up system resources too quickly. Perhaps a good application of the XAMPP Moodle across a network is for a course developer Moodle. That is, instead of tying up the production site, your course writers, Teachers, Course Creators, whomever, have a localized Moodle that they alone have access to to prepare courses, which are then uploaded to the production site.
