It's the nature of the beast I'm afraid. Even if people are not logging directly into mpserver04 all FG MP traffic has to be echoed to it, so each FG MP server needs the same synchronisation bandwidth. Any clients who connect to the FG net via mpserver04 will only increase the bandwidth further. Its a shame but you probably have little choice:( LeeE ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
