Aside from the fact I _really_ wouldn't expect that manny actual, live TCP connections at one time...that many users, maybe... I _really_ hate so-called dedicated boxes. They're closed, nasty, inflexible and often don't work in _your_ situation. Doing smart session-based redirection can be hard with these boxes. -- David Hodgkinson, Wizard for Hire http://www.davehodgkinson.com Editor-in-chief, The Highway Star http://www.deep-purple.com Deep Purple Family Tree news http://www.slashrock.com Interim Technical Director, Web Architecture Consultant for hire
