Well, if you mean simultaneous users, that depends on what value you set for MAXUSERS in your kernel configuration file. If you haven't built yourself a kernel and are still using GENERIC, then MAXUSERS is 32. See /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC and /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT. See the handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook50.html#128 ) for guidance on building a custom kernel. --Dan ** The thing I like most about Windows 98 is... ** You can download FreeBSD with it!
