I'm not asking for any HOWTO's but I was wondering > if there were any minimum hardware requirements for what I want to A CVS server is mainly a file server. Therefore you can use the same requirements used for a web server or an nfs server. ( numbers of connections / number of file to share...) 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. Not that this is totally different while using Clearcase: it uses its own filesystem so every file access goes through it => huge disks! a lot of memory, a wide bandwidth and tons of patience because whatever hardware you use, it will always be slower.
