Hi, Jochen,

it's not that bad ;-) (thank the IT god Raptor is not made by MS). Raptor 
uses NT more as a "startup shell", it uses its own IP stack.

Our Raptor runs on an NT 4.0 machine (SP5) with a PII 266 and 128MB RAM. We 
have about 70 internal users, the Raptor is connected to a 64k leased line, 
and we use a web proxy on the outside of the firewall.

We are using the Raptor Mobile for accessing the LAN from our home offices 
(5 users). We don't have any performance problems with this config, the 
server has a typical CPU usage of 5 to 10 %, and a typical RAM usage of 
about 65MB. I think there should arise no problems even on an 2MBit leased 
line (we will upgrade in the near future).

Regards
    Sepp
