Miguel, Douglas Brown has put together a document called Methodology in a box. I have found this to be an excellent resource when setting up Metaframe servers. You can download a version of it from this link: http://www.dabcc.com/miab/default.htm Thank you, David N.

I am trying to get information to justify the new hardware the upgrade will require. Here we run 22 MetaFrame 1.8 servers running some third party apps. We are planning in starting from scratch. I know I need a SQL server and a Web server or two. There will be aprox 500 at peak times running an app that takes about 24mbs of ram per user. The servers we will get will be loaded in memory and will be dual processors. Thanks.
