I'm planning on supporting 2000 users and I'm wondering if anyone has any good ideas on what I should do. I plan on either buying multiple boxes of Dual Pentium Pro machines to support a fraction of the 2k users on FreeBSD or BSD/OS, *or* buy one or two Sun Sparc Ultras. I'm not too sure how well FreeBSD or BSD/OS does SMP either. Anyone supporting 2k users willing to give me any advice on how I should approach this? I'm curious as to how many shell users can one Dual PPro 200 box running FBSD handle. Any suggestions or ideas or speculations would be welcomed. :) -Khanh nguyenpk@kuci.org nguyenpk@quadrunner.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ryan Phi Khanh Nguyen Network Manager E-mail nguyenpk@kuci.org for Public Key http://kuci.org/~nguyenpk PGP Key fingerprint = 4B B3 5B 7D 21 95 67 23 58 9C AD 64 44 57 CC 5D -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
