We have an 2940UW in a pentium 100 (ASUS VX) with 32 megs fast ethernet and 3 disks 1 IBM DCAS (4.3 UW) and 2 old FAST SCSI-2 Fujitsu (500 megs disks). The server serves 2 gigs over NFS for 25 dos/win31 pcs and he also serves SMB (Files/Printing) for another 5 pcs. He is also used as an ftp server for about 1 gig of other stuff. Oh and he's being used as a normal workstation on the side as well. Not a single problem yet, other than that the aha2940 didnt work with the original via board. -- "Beware of geeks bearing GIFs."
