Netscape Directory Server™ 3.1 on both a Compaq ProLiant™ 5500 (with 4 Pentium Pro™ processors) server and a Sun Ultra™ 5, with and without the aid of cryptographic hardware, is examined.
Sizing Guide for Netscape Directory Server
The purpose of this guide is to offer a starting point for sizing server hardware for Netscape Director Server. This is a simple guide, not a recipe book and is by no means comprehensive. Only that major topics such as class of machine, amount of memory, amount of disk, and number of CPUs are covered. For best results, use this guide in conjunction with advice from your friendly Netscape System Engineer.
