Hi steve Well to be truthful, I hope they will use it as a web service in the future but not likely. There are only 2 workstations and not vast data. The data will be on the server and the workstations run the exe. I think the server they have runs fine anyway but I was asked to spec a new one. Dual nic's, while I see the benifits, how do you configure dual nic's for the same data? I'm used to dual nic's for separate networks or are you talking about using it as a firewall? Al

Do you know how much consumption of WS could happen over time? Will these WS deal with your VFP data or will they NOT use local data? High end for a file server? Dual chips, 4 gig of ram with ability to double to 8, raid and disks to fit your projected needs, dual NICs, 2U size max unless the storage requirements need more. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/005401caf1d6$3d260e40$b7722a...@com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
