Even in a 9x OS that server should be plenty fast enough for a 32-player server... NT/Win2k/Linux would be much better, true.
Are you sure there aren't any network problems on your LAN? Like mega collisions or a bad NIC somewhere? Check your hub and see if you see a lot of collisions under load. If not, try a bandwidth test (copying a large file or something) and check the speed and collisions. Also make sure the server is on a 100Mbit switch, although 10Mbit is enough. If all is well, it's likely not your network. I'm guessing it could be the network cause your server is pretty beefy. -----Original Message----- From: Wrath_of_Ace [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, November 03, 2001 4:07 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [hlds] how to reduce choke and loss on a LAN Use windows 2000 or Windows XP Pro maybe Linux.

I'm sure there are ppl on the list that could help point out some things. Especially when it comes to the type of hub/switch you use (hint, don't use a hub, get a switch). What would help others out more, would be for you to include more details about your LAN configuration and the type of equipment used for the network connections as well as the OS types.
