It works very well for us (www.hotwired.com is one of two different machines). We do this more for redundancy than because the load is too heavy - one machine (we're using Indy R4400's) could probably handle the load if it wasn't also being used as a workstation. I know NCSA does this as well. Brian --=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-- brian@hotwired.com brian@hyperreal.com http://www.hotwired.com/Staff/brian/
