tried everything from 1000 up to 10000... I have been running servers since early 2000... And have start to get them after a while. And only in 1.6 and CSS.
Back then it was FreeBSD 4.2 on a dual p3 550 with an own linux_base. I could run 4 public 13 slots (1 reserved) servers on that spec. That server runned either dc or de card. And as I said, I'll try another chipset on the NIC. It will not cost me more time than the time it takes to travel to the server location and switch cards... /Bjorn On Sat, 5 Feb 2005, Reza A.
