Hi Craig,
Microsoft strongly urges and in same cases will not even support a system
that has more than a couple hundred domains on a single server. There are
folks out there with several thousand sites under O'Reilly Website.
So the limit is probably not CF but IIS and given this config probably about
25 to 50. You have already heard to not put SQL and IIS on the same server,
very good advice. Also the amount of RAM is probably too low for any serious
hosting.

Subject: Slightly OT : How many accounts can my server handle?
Hello,
I realize that there are many factors in determining how many sites a server
can handle are, but i'm just looking for guidelines. The server information
is below, and lets assume that an average site on the server uses ColdFusion
and Access or SQL Server 7.0 and uses 1 Gig of bandwidth a month. Lets also
assume that I would use Virtual Directories instead of unique IP addresses
for each account. How many sites would you say this server could handle?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Hardware:
- Pentium 600MHz
- 256MB RAM
- 20GB EIDE hard drive
Software:
- Windows NT 4(with most recent service pack)
- IIS 4.0
- Primary DNS Server
- SQL Server 7.0
- ColdFusion Server 4.5 Professional
- MS Access
Craig
