Thanks for the information. I'll attempt to clarify further what our needs are: There is a new project starting that requires us to have a good change control system that will work with the WebSphere Studio Application Developer (WSAD), the Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for WebFacing, Java, and other traditional programming languages (e.g. C and RPG). The change control system IBM recommended and actually used in their development team is CVS. Developers will need to connect to the CVS server from W2K workstations. However, I don't yet know which CVS clients for Windows they'll be using. >Not that this is totally different while using Clearcase: it uses its >own filesystem so every file access goes through it =3D> huge disks! a = lot >of memory, a wide bandwidth and tons of patience because whatever >hardware you use, it will always be slower. =20 That's good to know because the hardware selection I have is a little limited. I'll probably be setting it up on older Compaq server or desktop hardware.

Therefore you can use the same requirements used for a web server or an nfs server. ( numbers of connections / number of file to share...)=20 In fact more a web server than an nfs server because if users have = their own disk space, they will work on a local copy of the files.
