For the most part, 20 users on a file server should not pose any
problem. However, server memory and cache makes a huge difference.
Other functions such as email, print server, etc. will consume some
resouces, but again, depending on how all is set up, for 20 users,
there should not be an issue. (This is assuming a true server with
adequate backplane etc. and not just a high powered desktop..... a big
difference)
Using two network cards can be tricky and is regulated by your OS,
Bios and switch. Your switch has to be capable for dual input. To my
knowledge, one server and one switch would not give you much benefit.
A managed switch will help in high traffic performance as well.
Before I would try dual NICs, I would go :
1- True server
2- Plenty of memory-5gig+
3-Managed switch
4-Drive type and spin speed. Some Raid setups are slow on heavy
database applications. Mirrored systems can crawl
Last but not least, make triple sure your AV is setup to exclude your
compiled apps and all database files on active protection. This will
really dog down performance. Scan them at lunch, night etc if you must.
My two cents worth

Group,
The network I have isn't bad i.e. 20 machines using 1GB cards, but
the constricting factor seems to be the one connection at the server.
Has anyone tried having more than one network card in a server?
Also are there any thoughts on splitting duties on a network like
email server
domain controller
linux file server
server 2008 server
Just curious.
Jan

Peter,
In order to achieve your goal, while in Report Designer, define a TEXT
variable with the following expression:
vCurrencyText = (DWRD(currencycolumnname))
Then, you can insert the vCurrencyText variable in Rich Text Object
accordingly.
You may further customize the expression as follows:
vCurrencyText = (ICAP2(DWRD(currencycolumnname)))
OR
vCurrencyText = (LUC(DWRD(currencycolumnname)))
Have fun!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
