Title: RE: [FW1] nt wks or server ?

There are limits on a wks vs server that you need to think about. A workstation is limited by the number of connections, for example. A server isn't. List the abilities of each and see if it will make a difference for your needs. Personally, if you have server software and it isn't added cost for you then go with the server for the maximum potential. Changes because of OS is a bear. Once it is up the boss won't like having it down for any reason.

From a fairly unscientific view, I have had it installed on both in various companies, and it seems to make little difference. There are probably implications if you have a large number of users, but I have never had any problems.

I would be interested in others views as well.

Hi

I'm a newbie in FireWall-1.

Software Requirements indicates that Firewal 1 needs Microsoft Windows NT
4.0
but is it better to install it on a wks or a server ?

thanks
