 Hi,

 We have to provide telnet access to around 5000 Students
 (for pine, irc, news, etc..).
 We expect an average of 50-100 users logged at the same time.
 Should a Pentium Pro 200Mhz with 120Mb RAM do the job??
 (or is a Pentium 100Mhz, 98Mb RAM enough?)
 OS: FreeBSD 2.X
 Best regards,

 Nabil Zary
 Stockholm
