We have 75 employees here and we have print/file services on our DC. DC is Windows 2003, with dual 2 GHz CPU with 2 GB RAM.
1 domain, 1 site, 10 printers and a large (146GB) hard drive for file storage. Has not been an issue here. From: Tom Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2008 1:53 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Server build recommendations Hi Folks, In the coming year we will be moving from file and print on Netware to file and print on Windows 2008 servers. I have several small sites, smaller than 20 persons, and would like advice on if I really need a server for DC and another server for file and print. I know MS best practices recommend separate hardware, but management wants to know why, especially in small sites with low network/computer usage anyway. This is not an issue at our larger sites where DC, file and print will be on different hardware. Comments, suggestions, horror stories welcome.
