It depends on your use case.  I have a single IPv4 address allocated to one of my systems and have setup various CNAME entries in DNS that all resolve to the same IP.  I think that's a pretty common design pattern for people who colo their own servers and host multiple services on them. the tricky part will be if you want to host multiple instances of the same service though (multiple webservers for example).  in that case you'll most likely need multiple IPv4 address assigned to your system. -pete -- Pete Wright pete@nomadlogic.org @nomadlogicLA
