Instlling a trial VS2010 on my workstation hoping to develop some simple custom web parts for our SharePoint 2010 webs. As soon as I try to create an appropriate projectd (Empty SharePoint project) I'm warned that VS2010 must be installed on the same server as SharePoint.

I can do this, but on which server... there are 5 of them on our farm. APP01, APP02, WFE01 (web front end), WFE02, and SQL.

Many thanks!

Don't install Visual Studio on any of those servers. Install SharePoint on your development computer, then once you develop your solutions deploy them to your test and finally production SharePoint servers as wsp files.
