Our company is spec'ing out a new server for FMS. We will start with a single
license but I'm sure we will expand after the initial rollout and testing. The
hardware recommendations on the Macromedia site are less than helpful. We are
looking at an HP 585 2 X Dual-Core Xeon with 4GB of PC3200 RAM. Is this
enough? Too much? This is a $8000 server. It seems like overkill to me but I
have nothing to put it up against.

I would like to know what type of servers this group is using and what you
feel is a good setup for your purposes. I appreciate your time with this in
advance.

Yep... that server will do. It's probably a little more than you need, but more
overhead is good overhead.

I'd expect that you'll reach your license limits long before you reach the
limits of the physical server.

You are paying way too much for that server. I could build one much
more cheaply. So much so, that you would be able to purchase another
fms license with the savings.

Thanks
