Hi,

I built a computer for the department with left-over components
(P133, 80M RAM, 2,5GB HD, 10Mbps NIC). The computer is intended to
be a dedicated print-server, to relieve the DCs from this task
altogether.

Do you ppl think a 10Mbps NIC is enough for this purpose? We are
about 30-60 ppl at the dept, and the printer-server will hold
printer-queues for some six network printers. The OS is Win2k pro
with all the latest SPs and fixes.

TIA.


BW,

Sorin
