You might consider a digiboard 16 card. This can run in the main server until you need more power, then add extensions (up to 64 ports) and/or move to a separate machine. I believe it is a lot less than a portmaster etc. In a separate machine, you can do all authorization and accounting on the login machine then rlogin to the other machine(s). jbeukema On Tue, 9 Jan 1996, John Anderson wrote: > Hi, > I just wanted to thank all of you for the advice > and suggestions.
