If you haven't done a pilot already I don't recommend jumping in with
both feet. Slap MetaFrame on a box and connect with a few sessions to
see how much potential proc and RAM each session may use. Put your
accounting app to the test to make sure it'll work properly in multiple
concurrent sessions.
Good luck,
R

I have Dell dual Xeon 2.4 Gigahertz Citrix Metaframe XP 1.0 machines
with 2 gig of memory in each server and Gig copper NICs/switches for a
maximum of 30 of my users per server (hard drives are SCSI mirrored 10K
drives). 25 is a better number for total users per Citrix server but I
could go up to 30 users per server. The employees are MS Office 2000
users with a network accounting app (Timberline). About 1/4 of the users
are coming across the Internet with a DSL or Cable modem connection.

Will a single dual Xeon 2.4 with 2 GB of ram be enough power to
have 20 concurrent users running Windows 2003 with Citrix MF XPs. The
users will all be running Office 2000 applications and a network
accounting application. Printing will be a a minimum and both the remote
office and the head office will have a full T1 for internet access. What
are some suggestions on amount of ram and processors per 10 users?
Thanks
Justin
