My question: > 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. Taking into consideration all the answers (thank you all!), I choosed the following config: A PPro 200, 128Mb (for pine/irc/news) and will keep in mind 2Mb/online user. So a memory upgrade is already planned. The following services will be handled by separate FreeBSD boxes: SMTP DNS http + Anon FTP I am also planning a move from "pine" to web-based interface (eg hotmail, suggestions are very welcomed) Best regards, Nabil Zary Stockholm, Sweden
