[-- Attachment #1 --] hi i have an ipfilter/ipnat box, that i'm using to protect an apache webserver. the machine is 4.7-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE-p3 #1: Mon Aug 11 18:27:06 CDT 2003. the machine is a dell optiplex gx260 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.40GHz 512 mb of ram. it's been doing a fine job. my boss asked me today whether he could stick his two windows 2000 domain controllers behind the ipf/ipnat box. the domain controllers are pretty busy. they get about 4000-5000 authentication requests on a typical day. while i was at it, i was thinking of putting my mysql server behind the firewall. my question is - do i need to upgrade my hardware? or is my setup sufficient to handle the 3 extra machines? thanks redmond -- FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE-p2 #0: Thu Aug 28 12:42:04 CDT 2003 9:00AM up 19:57, 2 users, load averages: 0.08, 0.15, 0.26 'I generally avoid temptation unless I can't resist it." -- Mae West [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/T17/7g+NJl/fSB0RAvUbAKC0GZBpu7+xmytxHcaZOViRcxA68QCgoSmH VM75avFQsDW9zGZDK3vMSDU= =reDH -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----help
