We are, for a variety of reasons, joining the Corporate Domain in =
Corporate Domain in California. We do not have any BDC's here in the =
Northeast (as in CT).

As such we are trying to determine scalability in terms of how many BDC's =
or the Active Diretory equivalent we should plan for.

There are 3 sites in CT - approximately 350 users in each site
Two in NY  ( About 50 miles apart- NYC and WhitePlains) about 75 users per =
site
One in NJ with about 400 users
Two in PA - smaller number of users
Two in AZ - one in Tuscon - one in Phoenix.

We currently have NDS replicas in each of these locations so we are =
thinking we neeed to do the same for BDC's to smooth out logins and =
authentication.

Is there some formula for the number of users that can be easily accomodate=
d per BDC ???

Thanks in advance for your input
