You don't NEED to run connection manager on a seperate server. However, the benefits of connection multiplexing and pooling wouldn't make much sense if they were on the same box.
MTS is needed to take advantage of Multiplexing and Pooling. However, If you just want a connetion gateway with dedicated servers, connection manager will work.
At the moment i am testing it on NT and database server and connection manager are both on the same machine. what port i should use for cman and database for NT.
I have found some documents on metalink but didn't help me so if you have a copy of that document then it will be more beneficial as you have used it before.
