Re: pptp server and "how many clients"



Hi, I switched to linux-debian on the same hardware and now I have about
550-600 users.

~# date
Wed May 17 12:04:31 EEST 2006
:~# uptime
12:04:13 up 20:03, 421 users, load average: 1.67, 1.15, 1.03
~# uname -a
Linux hoptrop 2.6.15-amd64 #1 SMP Thu Mar 9 13:47:21 EET 2006 i686 GNU/Linux

Users count for today:
Max count: 677.0
Average count: 410.0
Current count: 420.0

With FreeBSD 5.4 I have load from 2 to 4 with for same count of users. I'm
very unhappy with this, because I love freebsd, but seems that linux work
faster in this situation.

If someone have experience with heady load pptp servers on FreeBSD, please
share it.

Could you tell me is it possible to connect to ppped/mpd/pptp
