edubuntu-users Digest, Vol 6, Issue 10

Mr Karl Goetz:
 
 Thank you for your mail, it was informative. i am using low cost computers from nornhtec (http://www.norhtec.com) as clients. your configuration works fine for 20 clients if i have double that specs i believe 40 clients on one server would be okay, with good data throughput and no bottlenecks.


Do i have to use GbE for my LAN? what internet connectivity bandwidth would be optimal for 40 concurrent clients connected to the server?

Thank you.

3 gig P4
2 gig of ram
300 gig of hdd space.
1 gigabit port (uplinks into the switches gigabit, so machines get 500mb 
each)
