But is that enabled by default?  Or is modification required.  I did some
testing a while back and not every service rejected connections.

It would take an astonishing amount of traffic to max out the interfaces.  I
don't think a PC based system could handle a fraction of what you propose.
I think you need to look to a non-Intel platform, like Alpha or something.

I thought the PCI bus speed was the same as the CPU base speed (FSB).
You're saying the PCI bus is fixed at 33MHz?

Maybe it's time for motherboards with multiple AGP's.

Re: ipaccounting

[Chris Wagner]

Try something with cron and tcpdump.  There are numerous ip accounting
programs out there.  Look on the Debian package list.
