Looking for this entry in the Wiki, but didn't find it - can you give me a hint what I've got to look for? I'm just about planning such a setup here, but it's for 40+ clients. Currently we've got only one server with two Xeons and 4 GB Ram, but if more than about 35 or 40 clients are used (yesterday there were 44 for a while), it begins to get somewhat slow. The most important thing is that it's dangerous to make everyone dependent on only one machine. Regards Rolf ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
