Okedoke , well 2-3000 users is well out of my league :-)
A client does *not* need to have winsock on it for any access via Internet
Explorer. You just point IE to the proxy. NT/w95  policies is a way to do
this. You can chain MSP or have multiple MSP, Just point the clients to the
required one. I'm sure CSM (http://www.csm-usa.com/) will have similar
features im sure.



A snip from Carric's post last semptember:
I am supporting about 2500 users on one Compaq 3000 (Dual PII
450, 2 Gigs RAM), and it doesn't seem to be too loaded yet.

cheers
dean

actually, simultaneous connections could exceed 2-3,000; and even go up to
5,000.
if ms proxy requires a winsock client...is the winsock client already on
95/98/nt desktops, are is this a seperate installation?
i'm wondering now if csm can support 5,000 concurrent connections, since it
does not require a client from the desktop!?
